  • Did my first one this year and made 4785. Was really happy with that and probably could have made more with a better suit and lane (I got the slanted lane between the deep and shallow end w/ a jet on the far side). My strategy was to start easy and build @ 2000 and 4000 yards. While I felt like the effort was increasing, I pretty much did 1:15 - 1:16 every 100. I had a rabbit to chase down in the lane next to me which helped keep me busy and focused. It really bothered me to not know how fast I was going. I knew the yardage but had no idea on the pace.
