I've never raced a 200, or even a 100 FR; my 50 FR SCY is 26.8.
I'm in a USA meet Sept 20th - expecting to get trounced by kids half my age, but still I want to put in a good showing.
How should I race? What should my 50 pace be? How do I not die on the last 50? etc...
I'm 44, male, swimming masters only 2 years, still learning lots, and open to all feedback - thanks!

I think I'm probably a middle distancer, but my kick is not the strongest; pwolf's recommended splits seem reasonable and would fit with starting with an easy but decent speed and building my effort, till I leave it in all the water at the end.
I will get some times in tomorrow's practice to see how I stand.
Thanks all for the suggestions!
