How fast should I swim?

Question

I used to be on a swim team when I was younger, but I have no idea how fast I used to go.

I was thinking about joining the highschool swim team

but I don't know what's "normal"

How fast should I be able to swim a

25m?

50m?

100m?

500m?

:]

Answer 1

Im not sure about 25 meters, because not many swim it.

50 meters, around 30-37 is decent 20-25 is crazyfast and 25-30 is fast. 35 and behind that is slow. these measurements are in seconds.

For the 100m 1:15 is decent.

Answer 2

17 mph is about as fast as the best olympic swimmers so i would just say to time urself in the beginning... compore with others and just keep working to imrove your time

hope this helps
