Competitive swim Seto race for the first time in six months "I want to do my best without impatientness" August 28, 18:33

Daiya Seto, a swimmer who has been nominated as a representative of the Tokyo Olympics, participated in the race for the first time in about half a year on the 28th and renewed his feelings that "I want to do my best from here without being impatient."

Seto participated in the competition between Waseda University and Keio University at the Tokyo Tatsumi International Swimming Pool in Koto Ward, Tokyo.

For Seto, it was the first race in about half a year since February, as the tournament was canceled due to the new coronavirus.

Seto, who participated in the men's 200-meter individual medley as an OB at Waseda University, appeared in the first half with a good butterfly, but due to lack of practice, he lacked growth in the second half, and compared to his personal best time marked in January. It was 1 minute 58 seconds 62, which was about 3 seconds late.

After the race, Seto said, "I was tough enough to die," at the very beginning of the race, "I frankly thought that I had insufficient practice, but I was able to confirm that I could do it if I did it firmly. I didn't do it, so I'm the pass line, and I want to do my best from here without rushing."

Seto won the 2nd individual medley at the World Championship last year and has been nominated as a representative of the Tokyo Olympics, but when he responded to the interview on 3rd of this month, he said, ``I have not been able to switch on myself It was said that it was difficult to adjust both physically and mentally because the Olympics were postponed for one year.
