I had the pleasure of talking to Coleman Hodges from the SwimSwam Podcast about my new book “Swim Training Patterns“. Coleman had some very interesting questions. I was particularly interested in his description of reputations. He called them “sacred”. Which highlights the special status they have in swimming. We would not want to swim a repetition that would be 2x, 4x, 6x, 7x. It has to be 8x.
