You're not a sprinter and you're not a pure distance swimmer. Your 50's & 1500's aren't as great as your 200's, 400's, & 500's. Your 100's aren't shabby. Let the D Divas take those 800's, 1000's, 1500's & 1650's. You're caught in the middle. You've got OK speed, but you can do those longer sets that make pure sprinters ill. You're well conditioned and tend to do well with back to back events. You're in great company, Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte are middle distance swimmers who have excellent 100's but not so great 50's. Man you can train.
This is the middle distance lane. Don't get lapped.

So as you asked......I finished in 6.16, I had entered a time of 6.15 and hoped to do around 6.10. However I can't be disappointed as: ...Still the meet was a lot of fun - 5 solid swims on the Saturday and 10 hilarious ones on the Sunday.
I got a couple of compliments on my fly too, so I'm now on to "Project 200 fly" :afraid:
'sounds like you had a very good meet. Excellent job guessing your entry time in the 500 too! First time ever... that's a solid swim. I'm curious, did you use a 2-beat or 6-beat kick, or some combination?
