Really only have taken a good look at the 100 breastroke (men) times, but, over-all really slow (in my opinion) No world records. Has the suits made that much difference? I don't know. Pool conditions-weather-who knows??

Maybe Leslie was right. I thought that women would fare much better than men with the suit change rules, but if this is any indication, they are swimming slower too.
