Top 10 Best Swimming Events

1. 200 Butterfly

   

   I am on a small swim team, and I am by far the best on my team at this event, let alone butterfly. Yes, it is very hard, but those who are good at it know that it is very rewarding to be good at it because not many people are.

   I love this race. Butterfly is my best stroke, so eight laps of it is a treasure! 200 Butterfly forever.

   The hardest event, no doubt! I'm a 200 flyer and a 200 breaststroker, and the fly is the hardest.

2. 400 Individual Medley

   The three events I'm best at are the 200 breaststroke, 200 fly, and 400 IM. I can tell you for a fact that the 200 breaststroke is the hardest, but the 400 IM is by far the most exciting. Fly is strength, breaststroke is technique, but IM is all about strategy. You have to think about everything you do. It tests everything and is overall so much fun to compete in.

   I love this race because it's so incredibly demanding. It separates the weak swimmers from the strong. Not only is it fun to watch, it's fun to swim.

   No one can be good at this unless they've put in all the hours. Michael Phelps said it's the hardest, no wonder.

3. 100 Butterfly

4. 100 Backstroke

5. 50 Butterfly

6. 100 Freestyle

   This is my favorite event to swim! I love it so much! It's really easy to do as well!

   This is the best event by far. It is the perfect distance for swimming.

7. 200 Individual Medley

   This is my favorite event. It is just so fun to swim and has so many interesting aspects about it.

   So fun! All of the strokes packed into one race, and you can sprint the whole thing.

8. 1500m / 1650y Freestyle

9. 50 Freestyle

   Definitely the event that is the most fun to swim. Just one length of the pool (or two lengths in yards) and you're already done!

10. 200 Breaststroke

    This is all technique and known to be the slowest stroke. But once you get it down, it's amazing.

13. 200 Freestyle

    Probably the easiest mid-distance event that still is fun and super rewarding to drop time in!

14. 800m / 1000y Freestyle

15. 200 Backstroke

    By far my favorite event! Pure backstroke! Don't worry about breath control. I've made so many record boards for this event, and it's a great event!

    Really? 200 fly is number one?! The 200 backstroke is so much better!

16. 400m / 500y Freestyle

    Probably one of the best "Distance" events, even though it isn't that long.

    This is a great long course event because there are not too many turns.

17. 100 Breaststroke

18. 200 Freestyle Relay

19. 50 Breaststroke

    Easy to drop time, and it's really fast!

20. 100 Individual Medley

    Fast-paced and an easy sprint, it incorporates all of the strokes!

21. 25 Freestyle
