Time: instead of distance
Intensity: I put markers in the floor if my pool, pulling harder Stretches the chords a little further. So, figure out what stretch corresponds to each pace.
Then, I just use the same workouts as the pool.
I put my garmin in ows mode... I think. It's been a while. I remember it recorded strokes and time... But, not distance and related metrics, obviously. I think I was able to program swim workouts into my 920, though.
Tips? It's boring as hell. I prefer dry land stretch chords workouts. If you choose to try it anyways, tie to you ankles not your waist. You will likely need to roll extra to breath (unless you overrotate already) ... Because there is no wake pocket from your head to breathe in.

I also find that using a pull buoy helps a lot, otherwise it's hard to keep the legs from sinking.
Just go for time at perceived effort...kinda like cycling before we had HRMs and PMs.
