100m Freestyle

100m Freestyle is a real-life olympic event that can be played in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. It is under the "Aquatics" category, along with 4x100m Freestyle, and plays very similar to the 100m event in "Athletics". The goal of the game is swim two lengths of the pool first. The event relies on both Speed and Stamina.

Controls
The controls of the game are very similar to that of the 100m event. The Wii Remote can be used on its own, or with the Nunchuk. Before the event starts, the player is given a certain swimming style (example, Vector has the Crocodile paddle). The way to swim is to shake the Remote and Nunchuk in a certain direction. There are five swimming styles.
 * Crawl – Forward and back alternately.
 * Breaststroke – Left to right alternately.
 * Butterfly – Up and down together.
 * Dog paddle/Underwater running – Up and down alternately.
 * Crocodile paddle – Left to right together.

When the event starts, the player has to hold the B Button while READY appears on the screen, to build up energy. When GO appears, the player has to release the B Button and flick the Wii Remote down, to get a speed boost. The sooner this is done, the better the boost, but doing it before GO appears will result in a Foul, and will slow down the player, rather than speed him/her up. Once in the water, the player has to use one of the above swimming styles, which will be shown when the player starts swimming. The faster the controllers are shaken, the faster the player will swim. However, more energy is used up the faster the player swims, and if all of the players energy is burned up, they will stop in one spot, and waste time. To combat this, the player has to press the B Button before the Stamina meter drops to zero. Perfect timing will give the player more speed, but bad timing will slow him/her down.
