Summer Swim Team starts Today?

Question

What is a good goal for this summer??

When I did my school swimming my times were:

1:27 for 100 Fly

1:29 for 200 IM

I know they aren't good, but what should my goal be for this summer??? How much should I take off... p.s. we don't do 100 flys and 200 Ims.... just 50 flys and 100 ims :)

Answer 1

How old are you?

a fifty fly should be in the mid 30's so you  should swim a 100 fly in around 1:10 to 1:20.  You will probably only cut off a few seconds though, iif that.  

pretty much the same thing with the IM.  

I can barely even do the butterfly so good job 4 trying.  

have a fun swim season, I was supposed to start yesterday, but I am waiting until the end of the school year.  Have fun

Answer 2

Well, for the 50 fly, go for a 40. I know that seems tough, but if you work hard in practice you can do it. I'm not sure that 200 im time is correct, but go for a 1:20 in your 100. Good luck!
