Looking for help on estimating a time. If my 100yard breaststroke time is 1:09.4, what would you predict for a 200yard breaststroke time?
I know it depends if I'm more sprint or distance oriented, a range is fine, but I'd say I'm in the middle of the road in terms of endurnce.

original poster here - Just wondering what you guys have done in practice. SwimStud said he didn't swim the 200 BR in practice. I didn't do any 200's BR in practice either, I rarely did 100's. I did mostly 50's BR. Although I did do a lot of 100 IMs and 200 IMs. I'm thinking I should start swimming 200s BR in practice. Any set ideas? I doubt I can manage 5 x 200 BR.
When I trained for the 200, we did a lot of straight 200's, and a lot of pace work for the 200.
Maybe try 4x200.....1) 100 fr/100br
2) 75fr/125br
3) 50fr/150br
4) 200br
you can also do it opposite with more fr then br...set it up as a ladder set. Broken 200 hundreds are always good, you can learn how to swim the event that way
