Question

What would be a good time for a 15 yr old to swim the 100m freestyle, 200m freestyle, 400m freestyle

Answer 1

100 fc   -      >1:05

200 fc   -      >2:15

400fc    -      >4:30

Answer 2

I would say a good time would be about 2:30 am providing that the 15 year old is awake and in the water.

Answer 3

When ever they feel like they can swim it!

Answer 4

Here are some times from a 13 year old on our team who's a really good swimmer and maybe you can get these times too...

100m free - 1:04

200m free - 2:17

400m free - 4:52

Answer 5

Good Time is relative. What do you consider good?

A PR(Personal Record) or BT (best time) would be good times.

i.e. If my BT/PR was a 1:05 then 1:04 would be a good time. If my BT/PR was 54.0 then a 1:04 would not be a good time.

To determine what a good time is for a 15 YO I'd start with

1.) what does the 15 YO want to accomplish

2.) Where is this 15 YO going to be swimming

These could be examples:

A good summer league swimmer:

100 M free  1:15

200 M free  2:45

400 M free  6:00

A good US HS district swimmer:

100 M free  1:00

200 M free  2:15

400 M free  4:50

A good US HS state swimmer:

100 M free  54

200 M free  2:05

400 M free  4:25

A good US HS National swimmer:

100 M free  50

200 M free  1:51

400 M free  3:55

A good Olympic Swimmer:

100 M free  48

200 M free  1:45

400 M free  3:45

World Record holder:

100 M free  47.2

200 M free  1:42

400 M free  3:41

You'll need to be more detailed about what you think 'good' means.

Hope these different times are helpful.
