Friday's edition of The Morning Swim Show analyzes the near-world record by the French and talks to Olympic gold medalist Pablo Morales.
Host Peter Busch breaks down the splits swum by the French quartet that almost broke the world record in the men's 400 free relay. Most amazing was the split by Alain Bernard, which is believed to be the third-fastest of all time.
In Reaction Time, Pablo Morales is surprised with the news that footage of his 1986 world record swim exists, and talks about the race at the World Championship Trials with vivid detail. He remembers Matt Biondi's late surge and the feeling of ease during his prelim swim. Morales also talks about Olympic memories and what goes through his mind every Olympic year. The progression of the world record in the 100 fly has amazed Morales, who said he expects a swim under 50 seconds either at Trials or the Olympics.
The Meet Flyer features the USA Diving Olympic Trials and the finals of the men's FINA Super Final water polo matches in Italy.
