200 Challenge: Goal time, roadmap and status updates

Here's My Rule of thumb for 200 times Compared to 100 times based on swimmer type: (assuming swimmers put forth an honest efforts and correctly split both swims) distance swimmers double best 100 time & add 4 to 7 seconds Middle Distance Swimmers double best 100 & add 7 to 10 seconds sprinters double best 100 & add 10 to 14 seconds Drop Dead Sprinters Double best 100 & add 14 or more seconds Some of this is due to poor splitting, sprinters over estimate how fast they can swim their first 100 the right way to split a 200 is even 3 28 30 30 30 a bit worse is add 1 27 29 30 31 much worse is add 2 27 29 31 33 even very well conditioned swimmers need to properly split their swims Ande has a pretty accurate rule of thumb for the 200: double your fastest 100 and add 10 seconds.
