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!

My most recent 200 Free was LC. I made the mistake of chasing down the guy next to me once again, and wound up swimming my first 100 too fast. By the 150 I was cooked and wishing I would have played a smarter hand. The splits for that race went something like 1:10.xx and 1:20.xx.
