Subject: RE: whats your all out 50 meter swim time?Ugh. I hate 50's sprint. I'm a mid-distance IM'er, so that short crawl stuff always irked me. Regardless: my best time ever for a 100m long course free was a 58:00 when I was 14yo. That's like a 52 in scy. I can barely do a 55 now in scy, 16 years later. My best fly time (since I was a butterflyer for a while) is about the same as my free time. In practice, off the wall, I can do 50m long course free on a 40 second interval, making it in to the wall at 34 to 36 seconds. I can do a few 100m free long course arriving at the 1:10 on an all out sprint from the wall (no dive), but I can make 1:18 on a 1:25 interval till the cows come home. Then again (on an especially unusual day), I (and the other morning Masters swimmers) saw Phelps at our pool last year doing 50m long course fly off the wall in the middle of practice arriving in at like 27 seconds like if it was a stroll down the beach.
