Thinking about doing a broken 200 back in practice tomorrow just to see where I am. In my age-group days, we used to do these and break 10 seconds at the 50. The time we would get (after subtracting the 10 second rest breaks) was surprisingly close to what we would do in a meet.
I'm wondering if I should change the amount of rest between each 50 since I am older now. Will I still get an accurate picture with 10 seconds rest or should I go with 15?
We did these yesterday. Broken at the 50, with foot touches. With the first one, the 50's were on 1:00. I did 4 sec below my best. The 2nd one, the 50's were on 50 and I was at my best. We dove on the first 50 only. And yes, lactic acid set in - ugh.
