100 Yard Free Style Strategy

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.

  • Splash and dash. Take out the first 50 as close to your hard 50 as possible, then hang on for the second 50. The most important part is not letting your stroke fall apart. Everyone else will be just as tired, you only have to keep a little more technique than them. If you do not consider yourself a sprinter, negative split the race. The race is not over until you touch the wall.
