Featuring record-breaking performances and strong indications of future championship success, the following interviews highlight five outstanding swimmers who made a significant impact in Westmont.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/meet\/2023-tyr-pro-swim-series-westmont\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Meet Page<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.omegatiming.com\/2023\/tyr-pro-swim-series-2-live-results\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Results<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Leah Hayes<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Champion in both the 400 and 200 meter individual medleys, Leah Hayes is gearing up for the fast approaching USA Swimming International Team Trials.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When asked what her training will look like leading up to the trials, she said: \u201cIt\u2019s probably going to continue to be the same. Maybe make it a bit more difficult.\u201d Hayes also shared that she will increase her intensity with more double practices. She said: \u201cI don\u2019t typically do doubles. I just started this year, so I\u2019m going to probably make those a little bit harder.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Regarding the Westmont Pro Series and swimming on her home turf, there was no doubt that Hayes received considerable support from the aspiring young swimmers who idolize her. If she could share anything with these young hopefuls, Hayes said: \u201cI have to say that community is something that pushes you and supports you throughout it all, and they\u2019re something you need to lean on. I lean on them in my hard times, and they are with me through thick and thin, and they\u2019ve helped me through so much in my journey.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Carson Foster\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Cruising to four top-four finishes in all of his events, Carson Foster again displayed consistency and versatility, along with achieving the third-fastest time in the world this year in the 400-meter individual medley.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In the process of establishing a framework in the summer for the upcoming Olympic year, Foster said: \u201cEvery summer\u2019s important for me. I think I\u2019m definitely more of a long course swimmer, and that\u2019s where I have the most fun with swimming. The summer is important to set up next summer, but at the same time, I\u2019m treating this summer just like I would treat next summer. So, even though next year is an Olympic year, this year is just as important for me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With Foster\u2019s rigorous training schedule, he only occasionally takes a break from swimming. Foster said: \u201cThe offseason is very short for me. Typically, I don\u2019t like taking big breaks from swimming, but I like to play golf.\u201d He added: \u201cIn Austin, it\u2019s normally pretty hot in the offseason, so I like to go to the lake. It\u2019s more just hanging out with my buddies and playing golf, going on the boat, and just kind of getting away from the competitiveness a little bit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Lydia Jacoby<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Champion in the 100- and 50-meter breaststroke, Lydia Jacoby continues to impress with only a year of consistent long course training under her belt. Recently, her range in the breaststroke races has been on display.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With the Olympic year fast approaching and Jacoby one of the favorites to obtaining a Team USA spot, Jacoby said: \u201cI&#8217;m just trying to mimic how the Olympic year will be. So, hitting all these meets and getting into a long course season this year is really important.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When it comes to making the switch from short-course training to long-course training, Jacoby said: \u201cI mean, this is my first year training long course, for a big chunk of time, other than training camps here or there. So I&#8217;ve been talking about my training plan and doing a lot more of my bigger aerobic sets in short course and just working speed long course so that I\u2019m not losing that.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Leon Marchand\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Keeping his undefeated season alive, Marchand again put on a show in Westmont and continues to prove that he is carrying major momentum into the summer. After a weekend of racing, Marchand set Pro Swim Series records in his specialty events, the 400- and 200-meter individual medleys.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The breaststroke leg of his medley races is a key for Marchand, who said: \u201cI train a lot of breaststroke. I\u2019m just trying to relax in the first 100 because I know I\u2019m going to be kind of behind everyone. I just need to get going during my first strokes, and it\u2019s kind of hard at the beginning because I just did fly and backstroke, but I just try to build it and just go as hard as I can at the end.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Every swimmer has their pre-race rituals before their races, but Marchand strives for simplicity. He said: \u201cI don\u2019t have that many (rituals) actually. I\u2019m pretty simple. I like to think about something else. That\u2019s the main thing. So I\u2019m just trying to watch Netflix shows and stuff. I just stay relaxed and wait for the moment to swim.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Marchand is no stranger to pressure. When coping with expectations, he said: \u201cThe pressure has been worse every year, but I\u2019m used to it now. I\u2019m still working on it for Paris next year because it\u2019s going to be the peak. I\u2019m working on it with my mental training a lot, so it\u2019s getting better, and I feel more relaxed now.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Regan Smith\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Going four for four in all her finals races, Regan Smith had a stellar meet in Westmont. She broke the Pro Series record in the 100-meter backstroke and the U.S. Open and Pro Series records in the 200-meter backstroke.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With her rigorous training under Bob Bowman, Smith has been putting more of an emphasis on her underwater work. Regarding her effort to improve her underwaters in training, Smith said: \u201cWith Bob, we do a lot of kicking, and so I think my legs are really strong now and are more prepared to have better underwaters in a race. So I think now it definitely helps me. I think in the past maybe not so much, but now definitely.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Smith also provided some insight into her life now that she has switched to training in Arizona. Taking a step back and reflecting on her life in a new environment, Smith said: \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve just been able to slow down and just focus on swimming, focus on what I\u2019m doing that day. I live alone in Arizona, and that\u2019s my first time ever being by myself and being an adult. It\u2019s been really fun to kind of practice being like a grownup. I love doing silly Monday things like doing laundry and making my own meals, and cleaning the kitchen after breakfast. It\u2019s just been fun.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leaving the TYR Pro Series In Westmont, What Five Champions Had to Say About Where They Stand The TYR Pro Swim Series meets have consistently showcased an array of exceptional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":93939,"featured_media":526377,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3,10],"tags":[132399,60848,58177,77336,70003,45350,130454],"class_list":["post-527505","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-world","tag-athlete-interview","tag-carson-foster","tag-leah-hayes","tag-leon-marchand","tag-lydia-jacoby","tag-regan-smith","tag-tyr-pro-series-westmont"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) -
