    Can you really just train for the 50 without training for the 100? If there's not enough depth in the training, then being focused entirely on the 50 might not translate to an optimal performance in the 100. Then again everyone is different. If it makes any sense, the 100 is like an endurance sprint. Aside from strength it does require a bit of stamina.
