getting the pb on the 100 breaststroke the british record that was like you know great experience oh actually no there's quite a few so 100 freestyle to get our british record for that long time because i've been working on that for like two years now finally get that that was such a relief but then i think the low was actually the final in the 200 i am
really

because no 100 breaststroke finally 100 breaststroke because i went slower than the morning and like I always want to improve from the morning to the afternoon.

But obviously, as soon as I finished that, I had to move on to get my head straight for the 103 start minute.
How did you move on then? So you talk about a low then.
How did you move on?

I think I just didn't take it out quick enough in my first 50 on my 100 best show.

During race week, I feel like I've just got to be positive with myself and not think about the negatives.
Yeah, yeah.
I was going to say though, do you sometimes feel like you need those moments where things don't go as well, just to stop that complacency or enable you to kind of reset and refocus?

I mean, like in past competitions, I think, yeah, because I got fourth in the 100m race, by 0.1 of a second.

So, and then like I got fourth in the Tour de Judaea and I've like, I've been fourth quite a few times.

I think to get that, it's been really annoying, but at the same time, it's motivated me just more to do better and just be faster and be better than the person ahead of
me.
But yeah.
