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!
Hold the 1st 50 at 28 then the mid 1oo at a fast race speed then all out last50. Also remember that you will also be swimming in other events plus relays, so you will have to pace yourself to finish all events. Good luck
