8 minute walk, or a 3 min jog, or a 1.5 min Sprint. I'll let you decide which one I did https://t.co/25lexwRcZD

Non-breaststrokers to breaststrokers:
“So how’s my breaststroke look?”— Zach Harting, M.S., OLY (@hartingz) June 15, 2019
Breaststrokers are the real MVP.
Our top six tweets of the week pertain to U.S. National Team-er Justin Wright‘s reaction following his 200 fly at the 2019 Pro Swim Series stop in Clovis last weekend, in which he took second (1:58.62) to Gianluca Urlando, who broke Michael Phelps‘ 17-18 200 fly National Age Group record in a stunning 1:53.84.
Wright captured his (presumed) reaction to seeing Urlando’s time in GIF form, so as promised (see below), we’ve rounded up the best captions.
Willing to dedicate the entirety of Sunday's TopTenTweets to this if swim fans come up big ⬇️ https://t.co/ol1PIW2oTz

When you thought the coach wrote "1×200 fly" on the board, but it was really "7×200 fly."

Gotta love a coach who doesn’t cross their sevens…
