Hey guys,
I'm just lookng for some advise....

I used to be a very strong swimmer but since leaving school the weight has piled on.

I have the chance to do a long distance pool swim for charity and really want to give it a go.

It is in May 2012 and i have not swam for about 1 year. I am still a strong swimmer however body mass is a prob! As well as strength and stamina etc.

I am wanting to swim the distance between Lands End to John O Groats (845 ish miles) while my other half cycles it. Works out at a fair few 50m lengths per day! (you do it over a 7 day period).

Anyone got any advise on best way to train? Obviously i am starting to eat healthy and swim regularly but need a bit of help on the specifics.

Cheers in advance x

Have i read this right 845 miles swimming in 7 days ??
