Olympic hopeful Ariarne Titmus<\/strong> woke up this morning and went for a stroll in the park but when the \u201cgun went off\u201d at 10.10am for her first ever morning final in the women\u2019s 200m freestyle at the Australian Championships on the Gold Coast it was anything but.<\/p>\n

Her life and the lives of swimmers here and around the world have been turned upside down.<\/p>\n

They have been born and bred on morning heats, a nap in the afternoon and wake up all refreshed to swim finals at night.<\/p>\n

MAKING A SPLASH: Ariarne Titmus nailed her racing return on the Gold Coast. to Photo Courtesy: Delly Carr (Swimming Australia)<\/p><\/div>\n

But Tokyo will be \u201cback the front\u201d just like it was in Beijing and the world\u2019s best swimmers have to become morning people whether they like it or not.<\/p>\n

There was extra pressure on Titmus, who had only been in heavy training over the last month after succumbing to a shoulder injury in the middle of last December\u2019s Queensland State Championships.<\/p>\n

But she really had nothing to worry about. She looked sharp in the evening heats at the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre last night and after rising this morning at 6am to get herself race ready it took just 1 minute 55.43 seconds to allay any concerns about her shoulder and the morning final and where she was at.<\/p>\n

Despite the withdrawal of fastest qualifier Emma McKeon (<\/strong>Griffith University) \u2013 happy with her heat swim last night (1:55.79) and to concentrate on the rest of her busy program – that\u2019s how long it took Titmus to win her third Australian title over the distance.<\/p>\n

Titmus knew she had to be race ready to win and she pulled out everything she had to hold off Rio Olympians Madi Wilson<\/strong> (Marion, SA) 1:56.26, Brianna Throssell<\/strong> (UWA West Coast) 1:57.29 and Leah Neale<\/strong> (Chandler) 1:57.67.<\/p>\n

McKeon, Titmus and Wilson all under the Olympic qualifier of 1:56.82.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a good place to start with that time; it is good to get it out of the way… I was very nervous .yesterday and I felt like I had a lot of expectation on me; people were even wondering, even myself, wondering where I would be.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been training quite solidly for a month now; post everything with my shoulder and (training) is one thing but to come here to put a race together; you can be training well but you don\u2019t know how well you are going until you race.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause I haven\u2019t had much racing practice; something I was getting a bit worried about but (I think) it turned out pretty good.\u201d<\/p>\n

And on the early rise?<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t want to be up at 7.30am and feel sluggish here, so I went for a walk…I was racing at 10 past 10am so I was up at 6 o\u2019clock to try and get everything moving.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is definitely good practice; but if (this meet) wasn\u2019t back the front I would not have had a beeline at all going into the Olympics and I\u2019m happy that I can practice strategies around swimming fast in the mornings.\u201d<\/p>\n

The corresponding 200m men\u2019s race was all over when Olympic 100m champion Kyle Chalmers (Marion, SA) powered off the final turn and charged down the last lap to take the win and his third straight title in 1:47.03.<\/p>\n

He swamped early leader Alexander Graham<\/strong> (Bond) trying desperately to hang on with his former team mate and his fellow Commonwealth Games gold medal relay partner Elijah Winnington <\/strong>(St Peters Western) who were second and third respectively in 1:47.47 and 1:47.55.<\/p>\n

Rackley\u2019s four-time World Junior medallist and distance specialist Thomas Neill<\/strong> was a close up fourth in a pb of 1:47.61 \u2013 encouraging for his 400, 800 and 1500m.<\/p>\n

And Chalmers take on the early wake up call?<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the final at the Olympics is going to be in the morning then you have to get yourself up,\u201d said Chalmers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a pretty relaxed sort of a person so for me I wake up when I wake up; I had a bit of breakfast like normal and did my warm up like I normally would – nothing changes whether its finals in the morning or finals at night.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone wants to be in a final and that\u2019s where the medals are won; nothing kind of crosses my mind negatively.\u201d<\/p>\n

And where is he at after his shoulder surgery in December?<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve had very little racing since the operation ….it\u2019s only my second competition back and only my second 200m freestyle,\u201d said Chalmers.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me it\u2019s all about building the confidence back up and belief in my body…to tick another heat and final off it\u2019s fantastic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 200m is an event I\u2019ve always had to work harder for; in training I train like a 200m freestyler but in the back of my mind I just want to do the 100m.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I know that we\u2019ve got such a good shot at that 4x200m freestyle relay; it\u2019s something I want to be a part of; so many of my great mates swim the 200m freestyle with me.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt makes marshalling fun; I get so excited to see someone like Zac Incerti<\/strong> swim so well last night…it motivates me and makes me happy…it\u2019s good to race alongside those boys again today.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve got a fair way to go shave wise and taper wise; swimming a time like that.. \u2018in season\u2019 is really good for me and when I need to I\u2019ll be that little bit faster again…\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile in other events:<\/p>\n

Local Southport Olympic product Chelsea Hodges, <\/strong>who started swimming at the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre when she was seven years of age under her long time coach Sean Eels,<\/strong> broke through to win her first National open title at her home pool, in a tough-it-out final 25 metres to take the 100m breaststroke.<\/p>\n

Just half a second separated the first four with Hodges taking the gold in 1:07.14 (after her pb of 1:06.90 in last night\u2019s heat) to hold off defending champion Abbey Harkin<\/strong> (St Peters Western) by a whisker 1:07.27 with Jessica Hansen<\/strong> (Cruiz, ACT) 1:07.41 third and Jenna Strauch<\/strong> (Bond) 1:07.70 fourth.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"W<\/p>\n

There was no holding back Zac Stubblety-Cook<\/strong> (Chandler, QLD) in the men\u2019s 100m breaststroke, dipping under the minute to win his first National title in 59.87.<\/p>\n

\"M100BREAST<\/p>\n

The women\u2019s 50m backstroke saw Australian All-Comers record holder Kaylee McKeown<\/strong> take the win in 27.45 (just outside her own mark of (27.38) ) after her pb to finish fifth in the 200m freestyle in 1:57.76. She held off Australian record holder Emily Seebohm<\/strong> (Griffith University, QLD) 27.94 and Madi Wilson<\/strong> (Marion, SA) 28.13.<\/p>\n

\"W<\/p>\n

And as hard as he tried backstroking \u201cboss\u201d Mitch Larkin couldn\u2019t quite nab the National mark owned by Ben Treffers<\/strong> at 24.54 since 2014 with his 24.75, a touch slower than his heat swim last night of 24.67.<\/p>\n

\"M59BK<\/p>\n

The women\u2019s 400IM saw Jenna Forrester <\/strong>(St Peters Western, QLD) win a gripping final with Commonwealth Games representative Meg Bailey (Hunter) with just 0.13 separating the pair after eight gruelling laps \u2013 Forrester winning in 4:39.46 (Aust 17 years record) and Bailey 4:39.59.<\/p>\n

\"W<\/p>\n

The men\u2019s 400IM saw Nunawading\u2019s Brendon Smith<\/strong> go ever so close to the Olympic qualifier, just a second outside in 4:15.48 to take his first National title, saying his race place was \u201cto go out hard and try and hang on…..but I\u2019m so happy with that..to win a National title is so good….I\u2019m stoked.\u201d The Olympic Trials awaits this champion young Half Moon Bay lifesaver and that\u2019s when he needs the Olympic Qualifier ..he is well and truly on his way…..<\/p>\n
