I have to keep in mind that I need to decrease my times based on the results of the last Huntsman Games in 2025:
| Event | 🥇 Gold | 🥈 Silver | 🥉 Bronze | 4th Place |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 m Breaststroke | 1:19.22 | 1:28.57 | 1:32.97 | 1:37.95 |
| 200 m Breaststroke | 3:01.02 | 3:38.74 | 3:39.92 | 4:00.27 |
| 800 m Freestyle | 12:00.10 | 12:16.56 | 12:32.85 | 12:56.76 |
| 1500 m Freestyle | 23:34.66 | 23:39.43 | 25:04.75 | 25:06.88 |
I really want to at least get in the top 4 or I will be so disappointed with myself. I think for my tomorrow workout I am going to try and swim my events again to see where I am.
Best training times based on events:
| Event | Best Training Time | Date | Notes |
