I was watching the Jason Lezak olympic swim again and noticed that he got 46 sec flat in his swim. Now the WR for the 100M was set later by Alain Bernard at 46.94. Are relay times normally better and if so, why? Thanks.

On top of all the previous comments, in a relay, a swimmer is able to anticipate the virtual gun (i.e., his opponent touching the wall) and therefore reduces his/her normal reaction time to virtually .000000000000001 seconds.
