My goal this weekend was to see where I was in the 200fr before zones. I would like comments on my 200 time and splits based on my other times at the meet.
The meet went 500fr, 100fr, 50fr, 200fr fairly evenly split over a 3 hour meet. I wanted to get 200 time from my 500, but I ended up eating my goggles on the start, so I swam cruise 200, 200 back ez, 100 fr just not to get last. My 200 time stopping to put my goggles one was 2:19, but I don't think that means much.
100fr: 55.86
splits: 27.42, 28.44
50fr: 25.30
200fr: 2:04.54
100 splits: 1:00.04, 1:04.50
50 splits: 28.61, 31.43, 32.41, 32.09
I will comment on what I think of my times in another post. I am interested in all comments and criticisms. Something that is painfully obvious to you will be something I did not think of.

Compared to your 50 free, your front 50 of the 100 split looks a little slow. As FlyQueen suggested, take the front 50 out a little faster. Front 50 of a 100 should be 1-1.5 sec slower than your best 50. Which considering the split is to your feet, means that the front 50 should at about 95-98% of your sprint 50. Then hammer the last 25 with a huge kick and hold on the last 25.
200 splits look decent but it looks like you float up a little too much on the 3rd 50. But what do I know?

Focus on holding your streamlines as tight as you can off every turn. Maximize the free speed from those 7 turns. Yeah, you need air but an additional 1-2 seconds ain't gonna kill ya :banana:
Or maybe it might?
