The list of my swimming deficiencies is long and distinguished. That's been well documented.
On a plane for business travel, I was reading the latest issue of Runner's World and there was a full section on Run Streaks. Many people came to love running through streaking and ultimately became better runners. The duration of each run was at least a mile.
So, I was thinking maybe that's my entry to swimming better.
Ground rules:
Given the above, what distance would you say qualifies me for the "streak". A mile running seemed reasonable to me for a running streak so _____ yards is reasonable for a swimming streak.

Ground rules:
- Assume I am willing to deal with the annoying parts outside of swimming like driving to the pool, dealing with awful hours. And, further, I am willing to drive 30 minutes for a very short workout.
- Assume my usual workout is 2500 yards +/- twice a week.
- Assume I will not find 7 shorter weekly trips to the pool as burdensome, but I cannot, under any circumstance, motivate myself to swim 3 or 4 legit weekly workouts. Two is my limit.
