  • Sorry, did I say that? 26.6 for 50yds free, 29.47 for 50m free. Does that make the 200IM splits more reasonable? I agree about the edurance part. I see it in my 200's. My best 200 yard free is 2:29. Based on my 50, I think I should be faster in 200's, but I'm not. My best 500 yd free is 6:49. I do not do many fast 200's. Maybe fast 100's, but rarely fast 200's. I think two things could be causing my middle distance and distance problem. One is conditioning and the other is poor technique which shows up in longer swims due to premature fatigue.
