Do the above all over again: 6,000 so far
Then did the following (which I printed out and brought with me). It's a copy of an online workout I saw earlier this week, and copied, but failed to print out where I got it. Apparently it's from Sylvian Estadieu, from here. (Thanks to Evan for helping me locate it)
One session that I did after Beijing 2008: The full Olympic program including heats, semi-finals, finals, individuals events, relays and medal ceremonies
It's basically ALL the men events, in the order of the official schedule:

2000 - 100 fly, 1500 free, 4x100 medley
2050 - 100 fly, 50 free, 1500 free, 4x100 medley12,150 (yards) + 6000 = 18,150 yards total = 10.3 miles in 5:35
I would have been DQd on all the fly sets as I did them one arm. I also used paddles on the 1500, and kicked the 4 x 100 medley. But it was still fun nevertheless.
Ate some energy bars every 30-40 minutes and those were awesome. Those Clif Bars are so good. They're like a cookie! Felt energized the whole time and swam strong. Very pleased with the workout. I'm sure tired now, but felt fine in the water.
I rewarded myself by going to Pool N' Patio and got myself a replacement for the no strap paddle that was lost. Can't swim with just one paddle. Then I got a Finis Tempo Trainer and Karina said that any Finis electronics that you buy at their store, if it goes bad to just bring it back for a replacement. No need to deal with the crappy Finis support people. Just take it back and let Pool N' Patio deal with them. Sweet! So I bought one of those too. I used to love my TT last summer when I was using it.

I meant to say the Channel Swimmers Google Group. I'm having a real hard time trying to locate the source.
I left my previous comment (which has been deleted) because the set was posted on the Marathon Swimmers Forum, not the Channel Swimmers Google group. Here's the direct link.
