I am 48 years old and I had a meet last Sunday at Mission Viejo; (Those Nadadores do a great job), and though I posted two personal bests in the 100 and the 50, my hundred time could have been so much better. I say this because look at my times:
100 Free = 59.54 Splits: :28.06, 30.94
I felt lousy during the whole race. Then I swam a 50 free and felt great. In fact I only needed one breath:
50 Free = 26.30
There is no reason I can't go out at a 27:00 or a 28:00 and hobble back in on a :30:00. I really supect I was unprepared and I blame my anemic warmup.
400 yards 3x25s at 80% 3x25 breakouts at 80%
Any help or warmup suggestions would be great.
