Each week I will load three Saturday Swim Session options up for you to do. Option A is for swimmers who are after a workout less than 2,000 metres. Option B is for swimmers who are after a workout between 2,000 and 3,000m and Option C will be greater than 3,000m.
Your ability to sustain a fast pace is effectively determined by your Threshold pace. Make improvement in your threshold swimming pace and find yourself swimming faster for longer (assuming you have the prerequisite stamina). This is a great session for triathletes and open water swimmers to do to build their sustained speed.

This session is a great tool to determine your current level of fitness and use as a benchmark for planning of future training sessions. This is an alternate method for determining it, really great if you have limited time for this workout. I use the main version every four to six weeks with my athletes and this version for athletes starting out, or recommencing training after a good break.
