MEN’S 400 FREE – FINALS

Connor Jaeger ran away with the men’s 400m freestyle beating out an extremely tough field featuring some of the best swimmers in the world in the distance events. There’s no doubting that this race was an absolute dog fight with Conor Dwyer, Michael McBroom, and Ryan Cochrane all competing in the event.

Jaeger established a lead at the halfway point with Dwyer, McBroom, and Cochrane all very tightly bunched.
Jaeger kept his lead throughout the remainder of the race as Dwyer, McBroom, and Cochrane all traded places. It was Dwyer however who surged to a second place finish with a time of 3:49.33 followed by a very swift 3:49.53 to keep the Canadian off the podium.

McBroom passed Cochrane on his way to a bronze medal by a small margin, as Cochrane finished fourth in 3:49.53.

Lost in the commotion of the race was a solid time for Dwyer. Dwyer is usually very prominent in his 200 swims, however this 400 is an indication that he is in fantastic shape starting off 2015.
