Swimming at the 2005 Maccabiah Games – Men's 200 metre freestyle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The men's 200 metre freestyle event at the 2005 Maccabiah Games took place on 11 July at the Wingate Institute. This swimming event used freestyle swimming, which means that the method of the stroke is not regulated (unlike backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly events). Nearly all swimmers use the front crawl or a variant of that stroke. Because an Olympic size swimming pool is 50 metres long, this race consisted of four lengths of the pool.
