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?

Try swimming some of these in practice before the event. After a good warmup swim at least one 100 Free from a dive as you think you would in a meet. If adjustments need to be made, you can make them in practice and not fall apart or lose valuable time at the meet. I have always found that it's easier to figure these things out by doing them than by talking about them. Good luck to you.
