I suppose since Sun is certainly capable of breaking world records in all freestyle events down to 200m he might also be capable of breaking the record for the 100m. That would be a tall order...

I suppose the fastest pool I have swum in is the 50m pool in Manchester, where the British Masters Championships were held in 2008. I believe Grant Hackett set one of his world records there at a...

Yes. Sun has had a running battle with the federation. The impression one has is that they feel they own him. He had to hand over a large amount of his prize money because they had paid for his...

My impression was that Sun was looking to win races rather than break records and that he did just what was necessary to win. Cochrane and Paltrinieri swam very well but I don't think there was any...

Ledecky does it again, with another WR

Yes. He certainly has a bouncy stroke and I suppose what you'd call a gallop. His style reminds me of the Russian Yury Prilukov.

Good morning

Great race and our Hungarian friend has uploaded a fairly full video. I notice the commentator pronounces Ledecky in the Czech style as Ledetsky. I suppose Katie's family originally...

Hi Terry

Interesting observations on the differentials between first and second 50s, and I believe correct. Going too fast on the first 50 is a common mistake, even among elites. They are young and...

And here's the women's 400m final, with Katie Ledecky leading them all. It must be very disheartening for her competitors to see her tearing away and not having the good grace to die on the last...
