36.17 1:05.59
40.54 1:46.13
32.32 2:18.45
here's how I split my 200 at the 2009 Austin Sr Cir Meet
wearing a Full body Rocket Science suit
30.13
37.91 1:08.04
42.16 1:50.20
31.04 2:21.24
I think LCM will have bigger performance differences than SCM or SCY
because we have to swim more, there's half as many turns and gliding.
It's possible to swim faster in a permeable suit than a full body rubber tech suit but it takes way more effort.
My LCM plan was to
1) get in way better shape by training harder faster and further more times a week
2) lose weight,
3) focus on a few events &
4) improve my kick
What's yours?
