It's supposed to be a secret, but what will the boy swim this summer?
Definite, TRIALS
200 fly
200 IM
400 IM
200 free (especially for 800 free relay)
Probable, TRIALS
100 fly (especially for 400 medley relay)
100 free
Maybe, TRIALS
200 back
400 free??? (I have NO idea; it doesn't seem like he's training for it)
Definite, BEIJING
200 fly
200 IM
400 IM
But what would his other 2 individual events be?
EDIT: mod edited for me!

I think we'll see this in Beijing:
100 fly
200 fly
200 IM
400 IM
200 Free
400 free relay
800 free relay
400 medley relay
Golds: 8
Just my guess.
I agree. Sticking with the program from last year's World Championships seems smartest. As Fly Queen mentioned I remember Phelps commenting that the 200 back hurts more than any other event for him because it kills his legs. I don't know if he'll win eight golds but it will be fun watching him try.
