I'm wondering what that time would convert to yards. I'm guessing roughly 1:25? Am I close?

Overall, it is a shame that more swimmers at the World Cup Events aren't doing like Phelps and going back to jammers. But, I guess that these swimmers just "Can't quit Tech Suits" until they absolutely have to.
Not every body is getting paid the same way as Mikey P. He can afford to skip the tech suits and lay down some (for him) not so great swims. For a lot of the other swimmers this is a shot to make some dough to continue swimming as pros. I'd be in a techsuit too, it's good business. I'm going to go ahead and say he's one of the few swimmers in the world that doesn't need a few bucks here and there to stay afloat between Olympics.
