Replying to @kelswarren5 Answering all your questions about swimming the English Channel. The training shocked me a lot. I was expecting long endless open-water sessions but most of my training was pool based, and pace focussed. If you’re training for marathon swimming, open water events or even just curious how channel swimmers prepare - this might help

Should you still train when you’re mentally drained work? This is something I’m learning to balance as an ultra marathon swimming training around my full time job
