The times were kind of slow, and nobody swam a personal best, but Ryan Lochte won the 400 IM and Tyler Clary came in second, which was a great result for the U.S. Laci Cseh came in 3rd. Cseh must have been affected by his illness earlier this week because he looked completely gassed at the end.
The final results were:
Ryan Lochte - 4:07.01
Tyler Clary - 4:07.31
Laci Cseh - 4:07.37
Great swim by Clary, especially catching Cseh at the end.
Here is a comparison of the splits:
Fly:
25.59/30.03 (Lochte)
25.87/29.71 (Clary)
25.79/29.72 (Cseh)
Back:
31.16/31.10 (Lochte)
31.68/30.34 (Clary)
31.85/31.72 (Cseh)
Breast:
34.69/35.97 (Lochte)
36.42/36.42 (Clary)
35.04/35.70 (Cseh)
Free:
29.51/28.96 (Lochte)
29.39/27.55 (Clary)
29.37/28.18 (Cseh)
I think this is the last time Ryan will swim this event, although he did not have his best time so maybe he'll continue to try to do better. He did not seem to enjoy it at all though. Clary's swim was the most impressive to me. If he can improve on his breaststroke, he will be unstoppable in this event.
