I think he rates up too much the last 25 and that costed him more than being out fast. 2nd 25 was 6 cycles at 1.03, 3rd was 7 at 1.00, and 4th was 8 at .94. Just started slipping a little at the end and a slightly long finish.

I think that the rate probably goes up and the slipping starts because of him being tired, not the other way around.

Just remember this is the same guy who was shot in the knee a few years back. Now he’s the 2nd in history under 50 in the 100 breast. You can overcome anything if you set your mind to it.
