With the entire season in a bubble in Budapest, and condensed to six weeks of competition, there were a lot of races, especially for someone like Flickinger, who swam nearly every event in the lineup at one point or another for the Cali Condors, helping the team win the championship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI enjoyed the ISL so much. I was nervous to go because of everything going on and my training had been so up and down,\u201d Flickinger said. \u201cThe six weeks went by so fast because it was so much fun.\u00a0We got to spend so much time with each other. We made so many cool memories. I am really thankful that I went.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And the Condors are thankful they had Flickinger on their side.<\/p>\n<p>Flickinger finished 11<sup>th<\/sup> overall in the season MVP point standings out of more than 300 swimmers. She was the sixth-highest point scorer on the women\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was having so much fun that I wasn\u2019t even thinking about what I was doing and how many events I was doing. If I stopped to think about it that way, maybe I would have been, \u2018holy crap, this is ridiculous,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cBut I was having so much fun and I wanted to do what I could. My events are the harder ones \u2014\u00a0the longer ones. It was my chance to step up for the team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Part of the reason Hali Flickinger could just sit back and race, not worrying about the outcomes is because no matter what happened, there was another race looming just minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>The other part is that she and her coach, <strong>Bob Bowman<\/strong>, had a strong plan going into the bubble.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBob had a plan. We talked quite a bit and we had a plan going in. The training that I did helped me through the ISL to continue to step up and be strong,\u201d Flickinger said. \u201cWe went into the ISL with the mindset that this was a training opportunity. I was doing really hard practices and that allowed me to have all of that under my belt so I could keep going rather than getting weaker.\u00a0I made sure I stayed on weights the whole time.\u00a0I was able to handle them like they were training meets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Flickinger, like most swimmers, was not sure how fast she would be after the COVID-19 pandemic took over 2020, keeping many swimmers out of the water for months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c(The ISL season) really gave me that boost of energy, why I love swimming so much. COVID-19 has been hard, especially with pool time. The ISL gave me that mental boost because mentally the pandemic has been hard,\u201d she said. \u201cWe all went to Budapest not knowing where we were. I saw some things I did really well and saw some things I needed to work on. I learned so much.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After moving to Arizona to train with Bowman, Flickinger said she has learned more than she ever thought she could.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBob sees things that I don\u2019t necessarily see. I am really hard on myself, but he is able to take all of the positives and put me back to reality when I need it,\u201d Flickinger said. \u201cHe really balances out my weaknesses, especially when it comes to not seeing progress as fast as I would like. I tend to jump to the future and freak out. It is really nice to have his perspective and bring me down to chill mode.\u00a0He knows the butterfly better than anybody. I get critiqued on my stroke constantly. He still can find what can be better even with good strokes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI still pinch myself that I am able to train with him.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_453428\" style=\"width: 483px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-453428\" data-attachment-id=\"453428\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ranking-the-best-womens-swimmers-in-the-world-from-1-25-as-objectively-as-possible\/hali-flickinger-cali-condors-isl-by-mike-lewis-6\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Hali-Flickinger-Cali-Condors-ISL-by-Mike-Lewis-D5D_0837-scaled-e1609436208835.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;MIKE LEWIS&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D5&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Hali Flickinger (photo: &lt;a href=\\&quot;http:\\\/\\\/olavistaphotography.com\\\/\\&quot; target=\\&quot;_blank\\&quot;&gt;Mike Lewis)&lt;\\\/a&gt;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1605032700&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;MIKE LEWIS&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;400&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;3200&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.000625&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Hali Flickinger Cali Condors ISL by Mike Lewis&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Hali Flickinger Cali Condors ISL by Mike Lewis D5D_0837\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;11-21-20&lt;br \/&gt;\nCali Condors&#8217; Hali Flickinger (photo: Mike Lewis) Budapest, Competition, Hungary, ISL, International Swim League, Mike Lewis, Ola Vista Photography, Swimming, mike2swim&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Hali Flickinger; Photo Courtesy: MIKE LEWIS \/ ISL&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Hali-Flickinger-Cali-Condors-ISL-by-Mike-Lewis-D5D_0837-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Hali-Flickinger-Cali-Condors-ISL-by-Mike-Lewis-D5D_0837-1024x683.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-453428\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Hali-Flickinger-Cali-Condors-ISL-by-Mike-Lewis-D5D_0837-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"Hali Flickinger\" width=\"473\" height=\"338\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-453428\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hali Flickinger; Photo Courtesy: MIKE LEWIS \/ ISL<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Outside the water, having that confidence in herself and her coach has helped her prepare.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just have to keep putting in the work.
