The main reason I was able to make the 100 back final (at Worlds) was because I put myself through a tight field in the morning. And I also learned how to focus on my own plan and take care of business leading up to\u2014and during\u2014a final.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/world-championships-day-7-cameron-mcevoy-blasts-21-06-to-win-50-free\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cameron McEvoy<\/a>, Australia<br \/>\n<\/strong>Where you think you stand determines what you think you see, and so context is everything and you must always try not to mistake the figure for the ground in which it stands upon. This is for everything, and in the context of swimming specifically for different training methods and beliefs in approach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kaylee McKeown, Australia<br \/>\n<\/strong>The obvious one is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/kaylee-mckeown-200-im-disqualification-questioned-by-swimming-australia-is-officiating-inconsistent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">not being DQ\u2019ed in my 200 medley<\/a>! But in all seriousness, I definitely learned that you don\u2019t have to feel good to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/world-championships-day-seven-200m-backstroke-kaylee-mckeown-sweeps-the-backstrokes-and-australias-12th-gold-medal-of-the-meet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">swim fast<\/a>. Great swimmers are able to rock up on any given day and find something within themselves to bring out a performance. My coach, \u201cBohly\u201d (<strong>Michael Bohl<\/strong>), is also teaching me to believe in myself, which is something I\u2019m still working on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mona McSharry, Ireland<br \/>\n<\/strong>Something I learned that I think will be really valuable in the upcoming season preparing and racing at the Olympics is learning how to race fast without investing a lot of emotional energy. Competing at longer competitions like Worlds or even back-to-back weekends of racing where I know I have to perform, but also being able to keep my emotions in check, is something I have been practicing.<\/p>\n<p>I think this will allow for more energy and motivation toward the end of competitions as well as progressing from heats to finals: trusting in my abilities and enjoying the race, and then moving on to what\u2019s next once it\u2019s finished without lingering on how I did.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Zac Stubblety-Cook, Australia<br \/>\n<\/strong>I learned to trust myself. I think this season has been a rocky one. Through the heat, semi and final (at World Championships), I raced three very different races, and I simply had to trust myself through it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carson Foster, USA<br \/>\n<\/strong>I\u2019m learning about myself every year and what things make me feel the most prepared during the season, at taper meets and behind the blocks. I give 110% at every workout I go to, so the next step for me is to make sure I\u2019m mentally prepared for each swim I have.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nic Fink, USA<br \/>\n<\/strong>I learned that a happy swimmer is a fast swimmer&#8230;and the more you enjoy what you do, the faster you go. This next year is going to be really intense, so, hopefully, I\u2019ll remember to have fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gutter Talk: Lessons From 2023 For Olympic Year What&#8217;s something you learned this summer that can help you in the Olympic year?
