Kelsi Dahlia Used Post-Trials Reset to Propel Herself to Impressive ISL Season<\/strong><\/p>\n

When Kelsi<\/strong>\u00a0Dahlia<\/strong> finished the 100-meter butterfly final at this summer\u2019s U.S. Olympic Trials, he run as the country\u2019s premier swimmer in the event was over. Teenagers Torri Huske<\/strong> and Claire Curzan<\/strong> had taken the spots on the Olympic team, with Huske lowering a nine-year-old American record and Curzan already having swum faster than Dahlia\u2019s best. Dahlia, who had placed ninth in the event at the 2016 Olympics and captured bronze in the event at the 2017 World Championships, had recorded her best swims in the event since 2018, but it had not been enough to return to the Olympic stage.<\/p>\n

But Dahlia\u2019s immediate reaction to the result was not a feeling of piercing anguish. Instead, she felt mostly relief. The long build-up to the critical moment had weighed on Dahlia, including during the one-year delay of the Olympics.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was just glad it was done, even though it wasn\u2019t the result that I had hoped for,\u201d Dahlia said. \u201cAs hard as I was trying to not [put pressure on myself], it was still there, and I couldn\u2019t deny that.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of course, Dahlia was still disappointed to not have finished in the top-two, but realizing that \u201cTorri and Claire were the best people for our country\u201d and that her performances at the meet really had been strong provided some solace. She still watched the Olympics in support of her many friends on the U.S. team, and she enjoyed following their progress. \u201cActually seeing how fast the 100 fly final was made me feel better because I knew if all the stars aligned, I still wasn\u2019t going to go as fast as the medalists did,\u201d Dahlia said.<\/p>\n

At the same time, Dahlia was working her way back into swimming. Cali Condors general manager Jason Lezak<\/strong> had asked Dahlia to return for the third season of the International Swimming League (ISL). Dahlia accepted the offer, and even after Trials, \u201cI wanted to stand by that.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was committed to racing again in just a few months, but before that, she needed a reset. So after Trials, Dahlia\u2019s return to the water came in its most relaxing, purest form: a 3000-yard outdoor swim with her husband, former French national teamer Thomas<\/strong> Dahlia<\/strong>. \u201cI wasn\u2019t trying to go fast to get my heart rate up, but swimming outside at that point was just really therapeutic. Just finding enjoyment and being in the water was what I found those few weeks right after Trials,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

After a few weeks, she began training with the team at Louisville again but with one new provision: no doubles. Dahlia spent more time working with the sprint group under Louisville associate head coach Chris<\/strong> Lindauer<\/strong>, working in more power and speed work than she had been used to while getting away from some of the aerobic swimming that Dahlia admitted \u201cis not my favorite thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dahlia believes that the lessened pool time has allowed her to push harder in the weight room and make significant strength gains there, but the benefits outside of her athletic career have been considerable, too.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m able to just enjoy the process, just showing up excited because my world hasn\u2019t revolved around swimming like it was going into Trials. As much as I didn\u2019t want it to, that\u2019s pretty much what kind of happened,\u201d she said. \u201cIf my friend needs a babysitter, I\u2019m like, \u2018Yeah, I\u2019m not exhausted, and I don\u2019t have another practice today. I\u2019m here for you.\u2019 It\u2019s been really cool to have the extra time.\u201d<\/p>\n

And that more balanced program has paid off in a big way during Dahlia\u2019s ISL campaign. She has competed for the Condors for the entire season, and she has recorded 15 individual wins, six in the 100 fly (in seven tries), four in the 200 fly, four in butterfly skins and one in the 50 fly. In the Condors\u2019 second playoff match, she broke the league record in the 100 fly with a time of 54.89<\/a>. That was less than three tenths of Sarah Sjostrom\u2019s<\/strong> world record of 54.61 and just five hundredths shy of Dahlia\u2019s American record from all the way back in 2018.<\/p>\n

As with all ISL<\/a> matches, the final will commence with the women\u2019s 100 fly, and Dahlia will be the odds-on favorite in a 100 fly race that will likely include Sjostrom and Olympic bronze medalist Emma<\/strong> McKeon<\/strong>. The world record is most certainly in jeopardy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI sure hope so. I would love to,\u201d Dahlia said of the possibility of breaking the world record. \u201cWhenever I focus on the time, it typically doesn\u2019t happen, so I\u2019m just trying to focus on my race strategy and staying relaxed.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dahlia also owns the top time in the league this season in the 200 fly, but she has not competed in the event since Cali teammate Hali Flickinger<\/strong> made her season debut. Dahlia is a pretty secure lock to swim the 100 fly, 50 fly and multiple relays in the final, but she did not know whether the 200 fly would be in the cards. Regardless, Dahlia will be a huge key for a Cali team seeking to repeat its 2020 league title against tough competition from Energy Standard and the London Roar.<\/p>\n

After the ISL<\/a> season is done, Dahlia does not know what her future holds. \u201cI was hoping that during this time that would become more clear, but I\u2019m still figuring it out,\u201d Dahlia said. \u201cI found a lot more joy racing here than I had in a really long time. It has been a lot of fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old from New Jersey would undoubtedly be among the favorites in the 100 fly at the Short Course World Championships later this month, but Huske and Curzan will again be the representatives for the United States. So she will return home and enjoy some family time around the holidays. Soon, she said, \u201cI\u2019m going to have a meeting with my husband and my coaches when I get back to see what my goals will look like after this.\u201d Dahlia said she won\u2019t make any decisions \u201ceither way\u201d before that.<\/p>\n

Whatever happens in her future, Dahlia is proud of how she has carried herself and grown over the past two years, even when the COVID-19 pandemic deepened the stress she felt about pursuing a second Olympic berth. Even though it did not work out as she hoped, that does not mean the effort was for naught.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s so many layers to it that I\u2019m still figuring out: the stress of being out of the water and not racing for so long and trusting that even if I hadn\u2019t been racing as much that I can still perform at that level,\u201d Dahlia said. \u201cI still am really proud of how consistent I was during that time when everything was shut down. I was really proud of how I worked out on my own. I never missed a weights session that whole time. I found a way to get it done, and I\u2019ll be able to look back on that, and I\u2019ll be able to carry that with me for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
