It really depends on how vigorous the exercise is and whether your diet stays constant.  \n\nYou can probably burn between 300-400 kcal for 30 minutes of swimming.  It take burning or decreasing 3500 kcal to lose 1 pound of weight (or 7700 kcal for 1 kg).   If you keep your diet constant, you could lose around 3 pounds or 1.3 kgs in a month. Swimming can make you hungry though so if you're doing it just to lose weight, you should also monitor your calorie intake.\n\nIt's recommended that you shouldn't try to lose more that 2 pounds or 1 kg a week, so losing 10 kgs in a month could be unhealthy.\n\nSwimming is a lot of fun and will help keep you in shape and fit.  Try not to have unrealistic expectations though on how fast you'll see the results.

Swimming is a build up sport.\nstart off slow say 20 laps(without stopping)\ndo that for a week.\nNext week try 25 or 30. \nJust keep building it up.\nYou will eventually be fit enough to swim a few kms if you want.

It's only a mile for crying out loud.  Don't worry... if you can swim 2000 yards in a regular pool without stopping at a pace of around 50 seconds per 50 you will have no problem.

Approximately 1608 metres in a mile.\nBetter to run a mile than run a Marathon.\nMarathon's are inhuman.

Not even close. Running is about 4 times faster than swimming.\n\nWorld Record for 50 meters 21.64\nThere are a lot of high school sprinters that can run 200 meters in the same time.\n\nThe average person can walk a mile faster than a swimmer can cover the same distance.

I think almost all tracks are a quarter mile. I've always had to do 4 laps when running the mile.

500 warm up\n\n10 x 100 sprints (if too much then cut the number to 5 or 6)\n\n100 cool off and rester\n\n10 x 25 sprints\n\nif you can do more.... then....\n\n8 x 100 build up   (meaning each four 100's you pick up the \n                  speed...like saying the first 2 100's are steady, the \n                   next two a little faster, the thrid two little below \n                    sprint...the last two a full out sprint!!) \n\nthen a final 100 cool down...any stroke...\n\n\nthat should be enough to get you going...if you can do that easily...then increse the number and speed....\n\nhappy swimming!

They vary depending on personal, public or olympic. Check it out at wikipedia.com\nThe olympic size is below.\n\nAn Olympic Swimming Pool is a pool that meets FINA's additional standards for the Olympic Games and for world championship events. It must be 50 m in length by 25 m wide, divided into eight lanes of 2.5 m each plus two areas of 2.5 m at each side of the pool. The water must be kept at 25–28°C and the lighting level at greater than 1500 lux. Depth must be at least 2 m, and there are also regulations for color of lane rope, positioning of backstroke flags, and so on. Pools claimed to be "Olympic pools" do not always meet these regulations, as FINA cannot police use of the term.

400m = 16 lenghts in a 25m pool or 8 lenghts in a 50m pool.  the skill is to head to the pool and at a comfortable pace see how many you can swim then youl know what level you are at.  the key is to swim maybe three times a week and each time add one or two lenghts to what you previously swam..this allows you to build your strenght over time!then once you reach the 400m keep practising and it will allow you to go faster, i dont know is there a time limit? best of luck and im sure youl do fine!

i remember a workout my coach made me do and it helped a tremendous amount. but you kind of have to be competitive to want to do it. we sprinted 100's, with set times that we had to make like it started with 1.40 and went down by like 5 or 10 sec. each time until it was about 1.00. but we had to make each one. it was against other swimmers and if you didn't make it you were out. its kind of a group effort( it makes it fun).\nbut ne other way is to concentrate on 50 sprints.

No way all you need to know is how to swim it and then it is a brezze. All you have to do is swim the first 50 with the pack, then swim the middle hundred fast, and bring whatever you have left home on the last 50.

You really need to work on your endurance.  Start with running 3 miles and work up to 8-10 miles.  By building your endurance it will make the mile a breeze to run.  You should also do some sprints like 400 meter sprints to help with the last stretch of your mile.
