Front running

In running, front running is a perfectly acceptable racing tactic. It could actually be utilizing a strength. Is it the same in swimming? It seems like I've read a lot about negative splitting and pacing. Does anyone here front run? (I think I've seen Kate Zeigler employ that strategy ...) Do we have to commit to hurt or is it better to commit to pace? (Sorry if that sounded like a Sex & The City question.)

I think you must be speaking of long distance swimming, which I do not partake in, although I agree that Coe, Clark, Bayi, Prefontaine & company were front runners. In my IMs, I commit to hurt. I always go out as fast as possible because I don't want to let those breaststrokers catch me. It's my only chance.
