I wanted some advice on my pacing for the 100 Yard Freestyle. My latest freestyle times were 58:86 100 yard free and a 26:56 50 yard free. These were not tapered. I'm kinda worried about this because in my small little league I was reading times and saw someone swim a high 25 second 50 free, yet his 100 freestyle time was 54 flat..
Just want as much device on pacing as I can before this final meet for the season.
It does depend on if you are a sprinter or a mid-distance swimmer.A good rule of thumb for many is swim the first 50 of a 100 about .7-1 sec slower than your 50 and the second 2-3 sec slower than the first. So for you with that 50 you could be between 56.52 and 58.12.
