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!

200 meters it is a hard race to pace.
I found it was easy to swim a 100m in 60 seconds it was not a kill me pace. Then it is was just a keep going steady to make my best time of 2:02 for the 200 lcm.
I never trained to do a 200 just the 100.
