Practice vs Meet-Times, etc

Any good resources or rules-of-thumb to predict race/meet times from training? Do you just use time trials, can you use your 100 base-times, descend sets or pace work? I'm curious as to where I am at early in this season and would like to compare/project that to a meet setting. I feel like once-upon-a-time I had a gestalt for judging practice performance that let me understand where my training was at. Alternatively, does my question even make sense?

  • Here are your meet times: LCM-50free, :33 a few times from a push at the end of a descend type set (long intervals) 28.96 SCY-100free 1:06 from a push over multiple repeats on a long interval. (This one seems really slow to me, which generated the question). 57.64 SCY-500free from a push 6:03, longer interval (7:30, last in the set of descending 500's) 5:43.24
