I'm new to masters this year and have had two meets since January. The first 500 was 5:50 and the second one was 5:51. I can't hold on to my pace after 350. I'm 49 and am working out 5 days a week. Most days are 3000 yards. Once a week I go 4000 yards. Most of my workouts are 250-500 yard swims, with some 100's on 1:30. I can go 6:10 in the middle of practice without killing myself. Why can't I do better in a meet? In meets my first 100 is 1:03 and at 200 at 2:11. Why the fall off? Any meet nutruition ideas? Workout ideas? Pacing ideas?
here's the link:
The Speedo FS Pro Highneck Bodyskin is probably the fastest suit for the money, only $203.
but as I wrote in my earlier post, I'm not sure what is going to be approved by FINA in their PHASE 1 testing. I really like the Blue Seventy Nero Comp, I hope it passes PHASE 1 but the current model won't pass PHASE 2 so it's done on Jan 1, 2010.
