What's the difference between your IM swim time

Yeah I know this serves no purpose but I just wondered.

Swim 5 minutes faster than run for me.

Nice one Dave, congrats

15 mins faster swim.  Although i am an appalling swimmer so that must mean my running is even more atrocious!

1.19 swim time at IM Reg, 1.58 best half, back in 09, but I'd like to think I could beat that nowadays. Should do another really... (half mara, obviously. Not swim!)

1:22 swim at Outlaw. 98 min at Wokingham HM.

16 minute difference. Hoping to reduce this at Cardiff HM in a few weeks. Depends on ankle.

I also wondered the same about 5km and 10mi TT times. I think a 5mi run instead of 5km. would be closer to parity.

 I doubt I'll ever be able to swim 3,800m in 1:20.

1:06 best Swim

1:45 best HM

Sorry to break the pattern but my swim is so bad it is 5 mins slower than my best HM.

OMG if the swim in my Iroman takes as long as my half PB I may as well give up now.

Think I need to work on my running.  

2:10 nest HM
1:04 IM swim,

Anyone else more than an hour adrift (no pun inteneded)

IM swim pb 1:25ish
HM pb 1:58

I reckon with some dedicated training I could get my swim time down by 5-10mins.  The HM pb was set a few years ago (before I got into tri) when I was running marathons and training regularly.  I very much doubt that I could better it now however hard I trained.

Edit note:
Nest should read best.

Although I was good at nesting, decorated a whole house at 39 weeks.

HM 2:20 back in the late 1990's, recent pb for HM 2:36
my running is bad, I know. Will try harder.

1.10 Outlaw 2012

1.53 Norwich HM 2011

Obviously I'm the only person who can't swim!

1.24 IM Austria

1.31 Dubai 1/2M

Not at all, my times are only so close because my half marathon time is faster than most. My swim is slow.

I think I've just tried to make a mental note to work on my swimming, where I've always said before I wouldn't bother. It would be an interesting motivational thing to try and PB in my half mara time in conjunction with keeping my swim time say 10 mins less than that.
