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!

Your son did well and so did you. You must swim a few 200s to get the feel of pacing a 200.
Oh, as a side note, my 11 y/o son swam the 200 FR earlier that day and swam a 2:26, so it was a wonderful boost to his experience to beat dad; it was fun having him cheer me on!!!
