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?
What I've found personally, though, is that my meet times as a Masters swimmer are WAY better than my training times. That is, when I was in HS & college I could come way closer to meet times in a workout.
This is true for me, too.
