Consider Larkin\u2019s goal met, as he cruised to a first-place finish of 1:56.74 on Saturday morning. The win handed Larkin his third national title in the event, and he was just a second off his Australian and Commonwealth record of 1:55.72.<\/p>\n<p>During prelims the previous night, Larkin eased through qualifying of the 200 medley while exerting significant energy in the 200 backstroke, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/after-impressive-154-38-prelim-of-200-bacstroke-at-aussie-champs-decision-looms-for-mitch-larkin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">en route to a time of 1:54.38<\/a>.
