In total during #GreatBritishSwim we spent a month swimming in the dark 😊 Was it always stars & moonlight? Nope 😊 But in the words of Mark Twain, “Do something everyday that you don't want to do; this is the golden rule for acquiring the habit of doing your duty without pain” pic.twitter.com/DMDdY63jXb

Seliskar crushing kids in the 2IM (1:40.55). Also dropped a 4:13 in the 5 Free this AM for some exhibition fun.
But most importantly, FINA, please take note how everyone knows who is swimming and what their splits are.
Oh snap! They even threw in some diving! pic.twitter.com/yBZXMfgCv1

Well, technically speaking, @katieledecky was actually the first qualifier at the 200 meter mark with her 2:01.46 split. https://t.co/C9H2hTNKgQ
