I have known Rich for many years and, in my opinion, his performances in Atlanta were definately the over-all highlight of the meet. He puts alot of pressure on himself, but, also there is a lot of high expectations from his peer group to deal with. He was ready!!! Totally focused and one great swim just piled on to the next. I wonder is Cullen Jones can go 22.1 in the year 2050 or Rowdy 15 years from now!!!!

In my conversations with Rich at meets, some of my favorite things he's ever told me about training are:
"In practice
Swimmers go too fast
when they should be going slow
and
Swimmers go too slow
when they should be going fast."
"I don't don't taper or rest for my big meet each season, I prepare for Championship Performance, which I call Championship Performance Prep or CPP."
"Resting your nervous system for big meets might be just as important as resting your body."

Rich also does a remarkable dryland program. He is lean, fit and strong.
