Favorite freestyle/IM events.

I'm curious about the relative popularity of the freestyle and individual medley events in terms of which ones people train for and enter in meets.

The variety is great. 100 is too short - you don't get to make a turn and continue with the same stroke. 200 is ideal, but 400 is ok too. I figure a good IM is the best way to tell who is the best "all around" swimmer.:)
