OConnor was comfortably inside the required time in the 200m individual medley as she finished almost two and a half seconds ahead of Hannah Miley, with Aimee Willmott in third.Four years ago, I was in London in my first Olympic trials situation and I was really going for the 200m medley, but the pressure really got to me, said the 20-year-old Commonwealth champion. I was pretty young back then so Im really glad to come back and book my spot because the 200m individual medley is what I really want to swim.I just knew I had to really relax and try and swim the swim I had been training for, focus on the process rather than thinking I have got to get this time.

Jazz Carlin won gold in the womens 400m freestyle at the British Swimming Championships Carlin also acknowledged how her 2012 heartbreak had spurred her on to victory.I watched the Olympics. I had a month or so out of the water and I thought you know, I can give this one more shot, she added.It was amazing to watch the GB swimmers race but I dont want to watch on the sidelines - I want to be there as part of the Olympics.Theres a saying that failure pushes you to success and Ive really used that, the real lows, to bring me up to where I am now.This week has been tough. I have really put pressure on myself, so it feels like a massive weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
