I&#8217;ve been doing some racing at home but to come here and race some other guys has been really good and to finish with that was really fun and just so tight.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And I think that&#8217;s what&#8217;s so good about it and it&#8217;s really exciting for trials and the 4&#215;2 as well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was just giving an honest effort like I did this morning. I was all in (this morning) and then I was just able to go a little bit quicker because it&#8217;s the afternoon and a bit of caffeine and stuff.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Head to head racing gets a little bit more out of you as well so I&#8217;ll get some good learning from that.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of his meet, the double Olympic relay silver medallist said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I think there&#8217;s still plenty to do and plenty to learn.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I came here and some of the times were good but the execution of different skills and things that I can work on &#8211; there is room to improve.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am quite happy with where I am at the minute &#8211; I&#8217;ve got a final phase and then into taper so quite excited for the next block.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dean said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I was very happy with it. To finish off with that was good.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;GB 200 free men is always a stacked event and it&#8217;s always going to be an exciting race whenever those eight guys go head to head.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I was really excited and I think everyone could tell that it was going to be an exciting race which bodes well for the trials in a month&#8217;s time. That&#8217;s going to be even better.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Going head to head with Duncan is always exciting: you know he is always going to put up a good race. He&#8217;s a great athlete and great racer and to be close to him on the 100 and 200 was really exciting and just shows the calibre of athlete GB has got on the 200 free at the moment.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Dawson Completes Backstroke Treble<\/h3>\n<p>Dawson set a Scottish record of 27.63 in the 50 back <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/dawson-scorches-to-58-65-over-100-back-in-manchester-second-british-woman-inside-59secs\/\">before becoming only the second British woman to go inside 59 seconds in the 100 on Saturday when she scorched to 58.65.<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_387459\" style=\"width: 335px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-387459\" data-attachment-id=\"387459\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/duncan-scott-goes-48-49-for-second-in-100-free-rankings-on-final-day-of-edinburgh-international\/kathleen-dawson-100-back-2019-usa-nationals-prelims-day-4-109\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/kathleen-dawson-100-back-2019-usa-nationals-prelims-day-4-109.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Connor Trimble&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS-1D X Mark II&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1564856236&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;270&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;200&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0003125&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"kathleen-dawson-100-back-2019-usa-nationals-prelims-day-4-109\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;kathleen-dawson-100-back-2019-usa-nationals-prelims-day-4-109&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Connor Trimble&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/kathleen-dawson-100-back-2019-usa-nationals-prelims-day-4-109-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/kathleen-dawson-100-back-2019-usa-nationals-prelims-day-4-109-1024x683.jpg\" class=\" wp-image-387459\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/kathleen-dawson-100-back-2019-usa-nationals-prelims-day-4-109-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"kathleen-dawson\" width=\"325\" height=\"232\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-387459\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Connor Trimble<\/p><\/div>\n<p>That was the fastest time in history by a British woman in textile and catapulted her top of the world rankings.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, she led from start to finish, splitting 30.32\/1:02.65\/1:35.37\/2:09.44 for another PB &#8211;
