timmythefirst: You swim for only swim races right? Or do you also have triathlon specific swim workouts? Just asking because usually a triathlon swim is an all out brawl for the first 100, then the most horrible freestyle ever...
i’m not too sure what you mean but i do have longer-distance sets which are more ‘triathlon specific’ i guess and sometimes we do starts in the water (rather than diving) but really the swimming training is all about improving endurance and speed (thus aerobic fitness which is needed for triathlons) and technique, all of which can be used for swimming whether thats in a swimming race or a triathlon :)
