Should you go swimming if you have a bad cough?
It kind of depends on what kind of swimming you will be doing. If its just splashing around and relaxed swimming you should be ok. However, if you are planning to go to swim practice I would take a little more precaution. As a competitive swimmer, the water above the pool is FULL of chlorinates that make it harder to breath. If you have a cough, these chemicals are not the healthiest to breath in, and you also run the risk of passing your virus to your team mates. It is a total judgement call on your part, but as a competitive swimmer I would say probably not...you will struggle with your hypoxic sets and have a terrible practice in general.

How long for the average person to swim 400 meters?
Well for a competitive swimmer in longcourse it should be about 4-6 ( depends on age an level) so the average person that doesn't practice swimming probably 15 minutes if they could even finish it( depending on how physically fit they are and how their general technique is in swimming) 400 meters is a lot for someone who doesn't swim- thats 16 laps in a shortcourse pool and 8 in a longcourse.

You should try to eat a snack before every practice, bring lots of water to practice, and have a snack after practice. (snacks like healthy cereal, vedgies,fruits, sandwhiches, nuts, ect).
