will opening a meet with a 200 kill my other events?

Don't have much meet experience. Going to the yonkers meet next weekend. If I swim a 200 free first event, then a 50, will it ruin my 100 free if I want a PB in the 100 free? Assume 20 minutes between the 200 and 50 and 30 minutes between the 50 and 100.

  • The split in my last 100SCY free race was 29.04 (32.71) My best 50 time is a 26.85. According to this, where am I lacking? At the meet, the "fast" swimmers differential are right around 1.5-2 seconds, and they are about 1.5-2 seconds slower than their 50. It looks like I am taking it out OK in the first 50 OK, but I have no finishing strength. I felt gassed on the last turn and lap! Is that what my splits mean to you?
