In just 12 months, Hubi Kos became a world champion, NCAA champion, European champion, and finally Olympic champion, taking gold in Paris in the men’s 200 back. With Leon Marchand as his training partner and Bob Bowman as his coach, Kos has made great strides in the pool over the last 18 months since he’s lived in the US.
Kos explains that Bowman obviously knows how to train athletes bodies but what really sets him apart is how he prepares his athletes mentally. Because of the rigorous challenges Bowman puts his athletes through on a daily basis in practice, Kos says it makes navigating the Olympic Games feel easy.

Wow. The sign that I’ve truly made it. I’m humbled and honored🥹
I was honestly just thinking about these habits this morning. I know I need to be more diligent about them. Especially clearing my throat. And saying ‘makes sense’.
My only question: I didn’t spend THAT much time talking about Pac-12s… did I?
Tbf, it was a great Pac-12s.
