Tennessee’s Brooklyn Douthwright took on quite the double last night, placing 12th in the 100 fly before going on to win the 200 free just a half an hour later. She swam a gutsy race, splitting 26.0 on the 2nd and 3rd 50 before finishing in 26.3. Douthwright and her coaches didn’t ultimately decide to swim the 100 fly until last week, at which point they made a plan to set her up for success. Seems the plan worked out.

Daaaaang. 11K in the middle of your meet?!

11,000 yards would be about 10km (or 5km each session) which seems like a lot, but between warmups, warm-downs between events, and again after the second races, there is no question the yardage would add up.
