Help me split my 200y free

this Saturday and achieve fame, fortune, the accolades of my peers . . . and my true goal, an NQT. I need a 2:03. 50 PR is 24.79 100 PR is 55.46, split 26.55 28.91 200 PR is 2:04.24, split 30.31 31.50 31.44 30.99 I took that out too slow, but I've been gun-shy after this debacle: 2:06.86, split 29.06 30.79 33.15 33.86 I consoled myself by blaming that race on the altitude (we were at 3,000 or so and I swim at sea level), but it still hurts to look at. I think the best 200 I ever split was SCM a year and a half ago: 2:19.90, split 33.17 35.46 35.49 35.78 I'm thinking that I need to be just under 1:00 for the 100 and bring it home from there? Can I even get to a 2:03 from my 50/100 times? Thanks for the help.

  • excellent swim great splitting text book Had a good one last weekend - thought I'd share with y'all. 50 splits: 27.99 - 29.54 - 29.47 - 29.31 100 splits: 57.53 - 58.78 Total time: 1:56.31 My best time as a master by about a full second. I feel I need to work on first 100 speed and get out a little quicker although this didn't feel all that "comfortable". I'm a 53/54 hundred type. I really brought in the legs for the last 100.
