What's considered a good time for a 50 yard sprint?

To think 6 months ago I was posting here whining about not making it halfway across my 25 yard pool... This morning I pushed it and decided to see how fast I could do a 50 yard sprint (Freestyle). I did it in :42. Is this good? Marian

  • It is very relative. I am 55 and do about 28 in 50-yard, but I have been swimming since age 9, and swam competitively as a youth (before getting back into it two years ago). If you are a beginner who could barely swim less than a year ago, and you are already down to 42.0, I would say you're making excellent progress.
