How Fast Will Caeleb Dressel Swim At U.S. Olympic Trials?

The SwimSwam Podcast

Olympic swimming champion Caeleb Dressel  notched fast swims at the Mission Pro Swim, signaling he is on course for a great U.S. Olympic Trials in June:

Dressel Mission Pro Swim Times:

  • 50 free  - 21.83
  • 100 free - 48.82 (prelim swim, scratched the final to fly home early)
  • 200 free - 1:47.57
  • 100 fly - 51.61

In this interview Caeleb is his own worst critic, recapping his entire season. He also sheds some light on the pressures of being a swim star on run-up to the Olympic summer.

PREDICTIONS FOR U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS, VERSION TWO

Yes, I am playing the Dressel prediction game again. I was way too safe last time. See version one of my predictions:

  • 50 free - 21 point 3
  • 100 free - 47 point 2
  • 100 fly - 49 point 9
  • 200 free - prelims one - 1, 45 point 9

See my new predictions after seeing Dressel's Mission Pro Swim races, and being heckled by SwimSwam commenters for being a wimp:

  • 50 free - 21 point 1
  • 100 free - 47 point 1
  • 100 fly - 49 point 7
  • 200 free - prelims only - 1, 45 point 2

But who cares what I think? It is all about  what you think. Give me your best swimming analysis.
