Ceccon not swimming the 200m Back Today, he chose the 50m Fly :rolleyes: :mumble:

I don't really know what to expect from him in Paris in that race...I mean, imho, given his speed base and his style, he could go and swim 1.52 and destroy the field, but he basically never seriously swam the distance in full rest and who knows if his actual performance can be close to his potential?

surely, I don't understand his pre-Games strategy :dunno:

So this means he won't swim the 200 in Paris? Just 100 back and relays? If so that is a huge waste of his enormous talent.

no, I still think he's going to swim the distance in Paris (and shock the world, taking gold and WR), but I don't understand his strategy in these months, he never took a shot in any official race, he's going to race the Olympic event with no feedback

 

we'll see what happens...I still trust him because he's already shown that he and his coach know what to do to be in the best shape when it really matters

I totally agree he should target the 200m. Can he swim it in Paris without the qualifying time, though?

he has the OQT, he swam 1.56.x in a random world cup meet last Winter

 

in any case, he officially confirmed he's going to swim also the 200m Back after Today's effort in Rome in the 50m Fly (once in her life, Miss Caporale has been useful)

I wonder when they will find someone to replace Caporale? For as long as I can remember (around 2000), she has always been in swimming and athletics competition.

I do really hope that some day they realize that they should get rid of those interviews right after the end of a race...99.99% of times they're just senseless, even annoying :bones:

    • I'll post significant changes periodically. I'll start with the recently added/updated documents.   Archery The addition of mixed compound (12M & 12W) forced a reduction on the recurve side. The mixed compound quotas are distributed as follows   Host - 1 World Championships - 3 Continental Games - 5 World Ranking List - 2 Final Qualifier - 1   To compensate the team events will now only have 8 nations. 2 quotas were removed from the World Ranking List and 2 were removed from the Final Qualifier.   Individual recurve and mixed recurve distribution is the same
    • In Rome, it would be useful to roof the swimming pool complex at Foro Italico, possibly with the option of retracting the roof and covering the tennis court complex. Overall, there's a lot to do, for example, compared to Budapest, but unfortunately, this is Italy How many years has Roma been building their new stadium, and they keep pushing back the completion date- now I read it's 2030? and it should be ready. The same goes for Milan- there should be a modern complex of indoor swimming pools with 50 meters pools, etc., but there's a problem with one stupid football stadium, which will only be built after an ultimatum from UEFA
    • and Artistic Gymnastics is "Sporting Gymnastics" while Rythmic Gymnastics is god know why "Modern Gymnastics" 
    • and a brief look to Cortina village    
    • We call it beauty skating, if we're using the literal translation. 
    • Our delegation are a bit surprised there no chairs nor tables in the rooms though  You not use tables in Italy ?   
    • In Milan we share the building with no one else than     &       In Cortina we share the place with  
    • impossible, there are not enough venues in both towns and I mean, Milan doesn't have an Olympic Stadium, a decent Tennis Complex and a big Swimming Complex (not to mention the sea) Rome, on the other hand, doesn't have a Rowing/Canoeing Basin nor arenas and stadiums for the team sports beyond football and rugby there's no chance that all those venues would be built from scratch, meanwhile if we use both cities we already have almost everything we need, especially the most expensive and controversial sites
    • New pole vault world lead and huge pb of 4.88by Hana Moll on her birthday yesterday .
    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)
