There's No 100 Meter Backward Run

Michael Phelps is not the greatest Olympic athlete in history - Los Angeles Times: "Three of swimming's four strokes -- everything but the breaststroke -- might as well be the same. Otherwise, how could backstroker Matt Grevers say he barely trained that stroke before winning an Olympic silver medal in the 100? Nearly every good freestyler can be a good butterflyer, and vice-versa."
