Bella Sims surprised swim fans, and even herself, in Mission Viejo by dropping a 4:06.4 400 free, slicing .2 off of her lifetime best swam just over a year ago. Sims was out fast (as is usual for her) but was able to hold her pace consistently over the last 3 100s, splitting 1:024, 1:03.5, 1:02.6. Sims credits Sandpipers head coach Ron Aitken for having a detailed training plan that only requires Sims to show up and do the work. All signs indicate that so far in the season, she has.
Looks like she’s in fantastic shape!
Incoming 1:56.34/4:03.81/8:21.47 at trials
Based on her split from last year she should be quicker than 1:56.34.
