Hey guys, do you have any strategy to swimming the 50 free?
1) Do you just go as hard as you can and hope you can stay strong till the end?
And
2) Same thing with breathing (if you can't last a lap without breathing) so do you pace your breathing or do you try to last as long as you can and then breath till the end?

Depends on how long it takes you.
If you take >45 seconds to go 50m you'll need to pace it like an elite swimmers paces a 100m race.
Also assuming long course 50m not short course 50m. Breathing strategies may be different if there is a turn involved.
