We\u2019re swimming like a foot underwater. We don\u2019t have any pop. But we\u2019re racing, we\u2019re racing tough and that\u2019s all that matters and we\u2019re doing good. We\u2019re in a good spot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The road back for Lochte is long. He qualified for only one individual event, the 200 individual medley, at the Rio Olympics now nearly five years ago, finishing fifth to go with gold in the 800 free relay. The years since have been filled with the fallout of his extracurricular activities in Rio and a 14-month doping suspension around the sport, plus building a family away from the pool.<\/p>\n<p>Making a final of a meet <a href=\"http:\/\/www.swmeets.com\/Realtime\/Pro%20Series\/2021\/SanAntonio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">like the Pro Swim Series<\/a> is a significant step. Lochte isn\u2019t daunted by his times or placement, given his training with Gator Swim Club and his history of not being the most prolific winner between meets of consequence like Trials.<\/p>\n<p>Most important from this weekend, as has been echoed by many competitors, is the chance to simply compete after the ravages of the 2020 calendar wrought by the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust getting on those blocks again, it feels amazing,\u201d Lochte said. &#8220;Any of the swimmers can say the exact same thing. It\u2019s just that excitement of finally being in race mode again after being not able to, and a lot of people were not even having swimming pools to train in. To start to almost getting back to normal, almost, it\u2019s good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lochte went 1:50.72 in prelims in the 200 free. He was quicker at night in 1:50.27, though dropped to last in the A final.<\/p>\n<p>Lochte had a double <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/tyr-pro-series-day-four-prelims-new-dad-nathan-adrian-grabs-top-seed-in-50-freestyle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Saturday morning on the meet&#8217;s final day<\/a>. He finished 11th in the 100 backstroke in 56.60, which he might well scratch for finals. That\u2019s to focus on the 200 IM, where he\u2019s the third seed at 2:02.03, 2.5 seconds slower than top seed <strong>Michael Andrew<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The latter event might offer Lochte\u2019s most likely path to an individual event in Tokyo, given the demands of the 400 IM at his age and the lack of a clear, reigning power in that event to get past.<\/p>\n<p>Lochte is keeping things in perspective, knowing the expansive programs of his younger days <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/ryan-lochte-fighting-father-time-in-chase-for-fifth-olympic-bid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">are a thing of the past<\/a>. But measuring against where he\u2019s been at similar points of past Olympic cycles, he\u2019s encouraged with his progress as Tokyo approaches.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know I\u2019m 36, I\u2019m one of the oldest swimmers,\u201d Lochte said. \u201cBut the training that I\u2019m doing is what I was seeing back in 2011, 2012 when I was at my peak. The times I\u2019m going in practice, just the yardage, the back-to-back practices that I\u2019m having that are great, I\u2019m seeing it more often. And it makes me excited to see what this summer\u2019s going to hold.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018We\u2019re in a Good Spot\u2019: Ryan Lochte Pleased after Pro
