Hello guys,
I will start soon to swim alone freely at the Oerlikon Schwimmbad. This is not enough as I'd like, in the very near future, to start swimming in a group, possibly with a coach etc.
I used to swim on a Master team back in Rome, 3 years ago, but now I will need quite a few months to catch up again with a proper training session.
I'd like to discover something in Zurich about Master swimming but I guess it will be everything in german language. Not that you make conversations while in the pool, but I'd need at least to understand the basics (2x100 backstroke, 10x100 crawl etc.. how can I understand this from a swiss coach? ;-) )
First of all, is there anybody here that would consider swimming with me at least 3x during the week, in the evening? (not before 7pm)
Like most of the people in the forum I'm busy with work etc but this shouldn't stop me from having at least those training sessions during the week.
When I was in a good fit I was able to swim about 2000mt in about 45min, and about 3km in 1h30min, but now the situation will be totally different (will be out of breath very shortly and will also have to correct some of the many defects of my technique).
About timings, I was able to make 50mt crawl in about 36"....
I'm not a good swimmer, but neither a bad one though.
Anyone here wants to take the chance to start organizing and EF swimming group, even starting from just 2 person?
Please let me know..
