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?

I have my best times as an age grouper, which I don't worry about, and then my masters best times. As you know, there are lots of different obstacles is our adult lives that make comparing these two measures less than apples to apples.
That being noted, Chris Stevenson has posted a really neat table regarding practice pace and race predictions. Check it out here. :bow:
This table is exactly what I am on the hunt for!!!
