Rachel Boostma (left) and Liz Pelton (right) were second and third at 1:00.71 and 1:00.76. That should give Pelton a spot on the Pan Pacs roster. (Photo Credit: Tim Binning/TheSwimPictures.com)

Cody Miller had the swim of a lifetime to win the men’s 100 breaststroke, out-touching last year’s World Championship team members Nic Fink and Kevin Cordes. Miller broke a minute for the first time, winning with a time of 59.91. (Photo Credit: Tim Binning / TheSwimPictures.com)
Too many people tend to “judge” when someone shows pure joy because of a victory or personal best. Cody had every reason to celebrate – he just became a United States national champion AND he FINALLY broke the minute barrier. Personally, his reaction made me so happy (for him) I had the biggest smile on my face and felt genuine happiness FOR him.
And with the Cal ladies, I was ready to jump onto the podium with them and do the Happy Dance! It was great!
totally agree ! there is nothing that can stop a swimmer to celebrate a victory , especially if they feel they totally deserve to win after so much perseverence in training . Well done guys
I’m all about big celebrations – as long as they don’t go Full Cielo. That’s the line.
