Could this be his plan?
200 fr
100/200 bk
200/400 IM
plus all three relays
he first must get through the USA 2012 Olympic Trials
His 2012 OT schedule should the same as 2008. I'm very sure he'll swim the 100 free prelims and semi's, doubt he'll swim the 1 fr finals, because it splits his 2 bk & 2 IM semis. I'm sure he could cruise his 2 bk semi and still make finals, he could punch a fast 1 free in finals, but he's not likely to make top 2 and might not want to endanger his 2 IM. It's a tough schedule. Plus consider warm ups, warm downs, interviews and showing up to the ready room for each race, he's going to be super busy. He'll be very fast and well prepared. The difference is 100 back, with Piersol out, he's got a better chance to make top 2 but USA's got a lot of really great 100 backstrokers & so far Lochte seems better at 200's.
USA's Top 100 bk times for 2010 & 11
53.01 Thoman,
53.04 Plummer
53.05 Grevers,
53.69 Lochte
53.71 Phelps,
54.20 Owens
54.22 Russel
54.31 Godso
54.45 Bal
54.56 Hesen
from FINAs world Rankings
Probably going to take 52.8 to make the team
100 bk & 100 free are the 2 big questions for Lochte.
