Ack. It appears that I am going to have to break down and finally swim my first masters 100 SCY free at zones. Since I'm sure you all have done it many times, can someone please tell me what is the most ideal breathing pattern(s)? I noticed watching the World Championships that many of the 100 freestylers (especially the men) breathed almost every stroke, which is not how I used to swim that race. Were they breathing more to save for the SDKs? What say you freestyle sprinters?

after the start i won't breath until i see the 15 meter or yard line, after that i breath every 4 strokes and then the last 25 i try to breath as little as possible maybe once or twice, i wonder how much time breath every stroke would take off?
