Katie really makes you rethink the limitations of women's swimming. Like, that's the fastest male distance swimmer in the world beside her, and she's holding her own. Granted, Finke is younger and you can tell he's not quite as polished in practice yet (there were some turns he clearly let go, and I'm sure being a collegiate athlete makes it a bit harder to be completely dialed in on every repeat), but wow. Simply inspiring. Not sure what was going on with the lane assignments, though. Seems odd she was in that lane with the other ladies if lapping people was going to be a concern. But what do I know, maybe it's part of some grand design for their program. It's just great to be able to see a few repeats in full.

I totally feel you. I wonder how everybody's training would improve if you let KL be in a lane with guys and chase them? There would be a lot of healthy competition and nobody would be in another's way. Thoughts?

@@kaitlynhafer5815 what do you mean? she's been competing against guys in training her whole life. she's a once in 100 year athlete like phelps. Finkes come around every 5 years or so.

@@kaitlynhafer5815 think it's better for the woman's distance GOAT to go head to head with the boys and not be on their draft. sure she feels the same. all the girls in Katie's lane are slower than the guys in finkes. so the best race eatchother. and the rest try to keep up.

Just think about how crazy it is that Ledecky can do the exact same practive with interval etc as the men's olympic champ in the 1500. She is beating an elite male college swimmer on every round. What the heck.

I have watched this video at six or seven different times and each time my jaw drops at the set Katie L put down. You can’t help but be awestruck. I am looking forward to seeing her at this year’s World Championships and going head to head with Ariarne Titmus. If they are both at the top of their games their races against each other will be epics for the ages.

I bet the rest of the swimmers in this group are just bragging every day about who leads thier lane :D if i was in this practice I would try to beat Katie and Bobby on a lap once (each practice 🤔) even if it was warmdown or drill just to say I did 😆

Well, you might expect there to be some separation. Ledecky is more of a 400 (and 200) freestyler on top of the long distances. Finke ofcourse does some IM (allthough ledecky might aswell). But importantly it might not be best for both swimmers to go head to head all the time. Bob bowman had this problem that around 2014 his middle distance group was absolutely crazy and they would completely self destruct on practices to get out ahead. So he had to limit the amount of combined training sessions.
