The '''men's 1500 metre freestyle''' event at the 1948 Olympic Games took place between August 5 and 7, at the [[Wembley Arena|Empire Pool]]. This [[Swimming (sport)|swimming]] event used [[freestyle swimming]], which means that the method of the stroke is not regulated (unlike backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly events). Nearly all swimmers use the [[front crawl]] or a variant of that stroke. Because an Olympic size swimming pool is 50 metres long, this race consists of 30 lengths of the pool. |
