Rising UNC senior Skyler Smith opted to get way out of her comfort zone this summer in an effort to perfect her 100 breast race plan for the US Olympic. This meant traveling abroad (for the first time in her life) alone to the 2024 Mare Nostrum Tour.
Though scary and full of learning curves, Smith saw the immediate effects of this kind of racing at the first leg of the tour in Canet, where she logged a PB in the 100 breast at 1:07.83, her first time under the 1:08 barrier.
Great experience for any good swimmer! They treated swimmers like pros before swimmers were pros! Racing new faces, traveling the world, and experiencing new cultures!
Many of the best US have done Mare Nostrum. With all the World Champ and Olympic Trials earlier in summer has proven it difficult for swimmers to take advantage of this circuit!
Superstar!!!
LOVE THIS GIRL
Nice bro nice. Check out IU’s Joe Radde, Indiana homegrown, ripping at the Mare sawr.
Who?
My mistake, he’s representing a French team so I missed him in the results!
Disrespecting my boy Joe Radde
Way to go Skyler!
