September 08, 2022 FROM LANE 8! Cesar Cielo 100 Free at the Beijing Olympics
Cesar Cielo qualified in 8th place after Semi Finals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. In fact, he didn't even think he had made it back to Finals. He had already left the pool.
Cesar says that this is probably the race he likes the most - even more than the 50 Free victory.
Because this is where it all started - his ability to manipulate his own mind. This was his super power, as Brett likes to say.

César Cielo is one of swimming's greatest sprinters of all time. At the 2008 Olympics, he won the 50 Freestyle and scored Bronze in the 100 Free after barely qualifying for the Final.
He didn't lose much after that. César won World titles in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014. He won everything there is to win.
At the 2009 World Championships in Rome, César set the World Records in both the 50 and the 100 Freestyles. His 50 record is still intact.

August 19, 2022 David Popovici on breaking the WR, Stoicism, the 400 Free, and being Knighted
Romanian David Popovici is the fastest human in history over 100 meters freestyle. At the 2022 European Championships in Rome, the 17 year old Popovici blasted a 46.86 in the 100 Freestyle to break Cesar Cielo's long standing world record.
Popovici also dropped the hammer in the 200 Freestyle, becoming the 3rd fastest ever behind Michael Phelps and Paul Biedermann. He broke the 1:43 barrier in that 200 Free.
Pop has been coached by Adrian Rădulescu since he was 9 years old. He has done an amazing job keeping his feet on the ground by leaning into the stoics.
“There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power or our will." - Epictetus
