whats your all out 50 meter swim time? (Page 2)

Wow.  I haven't gone off a starting block in about 20 years, and haven't timed a 50 yd or 100 yd for the sake of going all out since around the same time.  Based on my set times in recent months, I'd have to guess that I would be hard pressed to break 30 sec for a 50 and 1:10 for a 100 in a 25 yd pool.  That's a far cry from back in the day when my 50 was in the mid-20's, and 100 in the upper 50's.

In high school a good friend of mine was swimming sub-50 sec 100's and went to nationals for the YMCA, and a girl from my school made it to the Olympic trials.  It's amazing to swim with someone that fast.  It's just crazy to see up close!

Wow, some fast people around here. 

I'm putting one up for the slow folks.  I did 50m in :48 this morning.  That's smokin' fast for me. 

Swimming is about the only thing I CAN do...

 50 yd free - 25

100 yd free - 57

 and heres the sad part...

50 yd fly - 26

100 yd fly - 58

x2  Because of this thread, I timed myself tonight and after my warm up 200 I went all-out for 50 and did it in 31 seconds.  After 950 yards, did it again and came in at 42 seconds.  Not too shabby for my 5th or 6th time in the pool in the last 20 years.  Some people can run or bike naturally but I'm more natural in the water.  Running?  Not so much.   

never tried long course, but short course

50yd  - 22 sec

100yd - 49.4 sec 

tri/tbay - 2008-08-22 7:56 PM Lezak's relay 100M time converted to yards is a mid 39 or slightly better

Cesar Cielo the 50 Gold medalist swam a 40.92 from a regular start not a relay start

tri/tbay - 2008-08-22 8:56 PM Lezak's relay 100M time converted to yards is a mid 39 or slightly better

RESULT: 
Your time of 0:46.06 in long course meters
converts to 0:39.75 in short course yards

I went 27.1 for a 50 yd Free at a Master's meet a few months back.  25 years ago I did it in 23.0.  It's humbling to see how fast they swim at the Olympics!

Some of yall are like fish too.

50 sec for me.

Finally somebody in my time range!

44 sec for 50 all out

I feel like a brick... lol

I just broke 44sec for 50yd for the first time last week.

I'm between 44 and 46 seconds for 50 meters all out.  But I feel like I'm going fast!

(I guess compared to the old ladies floating down the lanes on kick boards, I am fast!)
