Adam Peaty Thought his Coach was Joking When She Said He’s on a 400 Free Relay

MIXED 4×100 FREE

1. London Roar 1 – 3:16.04
2. Aqua Centurions 2 – 3:16.38
3. Energy Standard 2 – 3:17.59
4. Energy Standard 1 – 3:18.94
5. Aqua Centurions 1 – 3:21.29
6. Iron 2 – 3:22.61
7. London Roar – 3:22.82
8. Iron 1 – 3:25.10

London Roar stacked their top relay, going for the win, and it paid off. The Roar swam the top time in the ISL this year, although, Cate Campbell has already raced a lot today, and the Skins races are now rapidly approaching. On the Roar’s B relay, they didn’t exactly go with their A team, especially considering breaststroker Adam Peaty went 2nd, splitting 50.73.

It was an interesting choice with Graham and Knox still sitting on the sidelines.

Not a bad split for a pure breaststroker

So bizarre though that his 100 breast time could be like 54-55 short course meters

Yeah now that you put it in comparison, only 5 seconds difference between his 100free and 100 breast is crazy

His team went 3:22.8, so Peaty’s split was right in line with the rest of the team.

It is pretty bad, considering Ippei Watanabe (who is a 200 guy) swam 49.80 in LCM from a flat start.
