New York Breakers turn it on when they need to most, picking up a 2nd conecutive event win. After finishing 5th with a 2:06.55 last week, Marco Koch torched a 2:04.27. Last week’s champ, Matthew Wilson (London Roar) wasn’t in the race this week, LON’s Kirill Prigoda did improve from 4th to 2nd this week. Adam Peaty managed to make it a 2-3 finish for London Roar, swimming a time that also would have gotten him 3rd last week.
Pound for pound, the fastest overweight breaststroker of all time.
No, that’d be Mark Warnecke. Remember him? Had to drag a lot more pounds through the water (same height, about 40 pounds heavier) and still won the World Championships in Montreal 2005… at 35. And a bronze medal in Atlanta.
Who is he?
oh just a former world record holder
