Mel, ONE MORE THING! After Michael wins the 100 fly tomorrow, PLEASE convince him to take a year off and then train at your old team, SwimMAC, for the 100 fly and 400 FR & MR in Rio!!! We NEED him to get back the 400 FR and KEEP the 400 MR, and he needs to become the first Olympian in ANY individual event to 4-peat!!!

ilove MP

Mel, I hope you’re right about McGill and Phelps! I also hope Lochte focuses his program more for 2016. This 200 back 200 IM double just isn’t going to work for him. I say, with Grevers/Thoman likely retiring, that he focuses on 100 back, 200 IM (That’s the one he’s never won despite his great talent in the event, and it’s more of a sprint) and trying to make the relays (more sprint work could help his 100 free). That way he could decrease total number of swims/racing yardage significantly but potentially still win 5 medals, as he did in London. Sixteen medals would put him behind only Michael for male Olympians. I’m sure he wants to know what I… Read more »
