Great advice from 2010 Games competitor Camille Leblanc-Bazinet on improving your Fran time:

1. Don’t wait to have your breath back because it won’t happen or maybe it will happen but 20 minutes later. It’s a waste of time and if you can’t breathe anymore, well we all know a human can stop breathing for 2 minutes without dying . . . so we are okay.
2. Do butterfly. They are a lot faster than kipping pull-up and when they are done right you can almost take your breath back on those.
3. Never tell yourself that it’s hard. Your body is able to give you way more than what your head think. Human is a complicated machine and we don’t know our potential . . . so go on until your body breaks down. And if that time you don’t have a nice Fran time, remember that you improve and the next time you are going to be better. And you can’t be better than yourself so don’t compare with someone else, just try to beat you everytime and you are going to win everytime
