The fitness test for the GUE Tech 1 course requires that you swim 300 yds. in 10 minutes. Correct me if I'm wrong . . . . but, that's an awfully low bar. I originally thought the standard was 400 yds. in 10 minutes. So, I started training to do 400 yds. in 5 minutes. 400 yds. in 5 minutes isn't exactly a stellar fitness indicator . . especially in the 25 yd. pool I train in.
