His impressive performance swimming a 1:45 in the 4x200 freestyle relay, much faster than his previous best time of 1:53.
Details on his sprint and technique training approach with different coaches to continuously improve.
How he thrives in competition against elite training partners like Jack Alexy, Bjorn Seeliger, and Ryan Murphy despite them often beating him in practice.
How he primarily trains sprint freestyle and doesn’t train backstroke that much.
How he’s the type of sprinter that has to build to 100% speed it doesn’t come immediately to him.
Goals and challenges preparing for the upcoming Olympic Trials with some schedule conflicts.
