A parody Bill Murray Twitter account had a great idea. 
In advance of tonight’s 200 butterfly final, I thought I’d give the non swimmer folks a little perspective on how fast the really fast people are. Right now I have the best 200 meter butterfly time in the United States for 2015 in my age group. And I’m ranked #2 in the world. I train 6 days a week in the pool and try for 3 days a week in the gym. My diet is fairly tight and I shoot for 8 hours a night. Below are the standings.
So there I sit at 2:24.30. By comparison, Michael Phelps cruised last night’s semifinal in 1:54.12 and will likely be faster tonight. Simple math tells you he beat me by 30 seconds. Or more than a whole lap. Some will say I’m fast. But the fastest guys could be out of the water and finished with their post race interview as I grind out my last strokes.
No amount of cupping in the world can make up that difference.
*Update: The @BillMurray Twitter account referenced has been suspended. It was a funny thread. Maybe another victim of cancel culture. Oh well.
GO USA!!!

Mike, congrats on your #1 ranking! You write “I eat pretty well.” Just curious…does that include a bowl of Shreddies every morning?
