Missy Franklin was the Ledecky of swimming before there even was a Ledecky of swimming, which makes Ledecky actually the Missy Franklin of swimming. Gosh I feel bad about Missy's Rio performance. I'm gonna hug her.

I don't know about anyone else, but on top of being a great swimmer, Missy has a smile that makes me smile every time she does it. So much fun to watch her compete.

She's breaking world records, while I'm getting excited about being able to swim backstroke 100m in districts, I didn't even know how to swim 5 months ago and now I'm the 3rd best backstroker in my team, but this is so inspirational

It is so sad she retired at such a young age but I think she has a good successor

Missy is such a legend. To go 2:04.0 with hardly ANY underwaters.

We heard Elizabeth Beisel say "I am so proud of you" from lane 4. Franklin was cheered on by her crew chief, Howard Haight in lane 5.

Missy Franklin smile is so radiant, and her Backstroke is just so good, hope she's back in the 2019 World Champs

I loved the way Missy's family was there and kept cheering her one till the last stroke.

In general, I'm a fast backstroker, but I constantly bump into the landline or when I turn around to flip turn, I'm like three feet away from the wall. :-(

It's all about practice. Watching your kick will help you to swim in a straight line. As you move your arm into your stroke, turn your body slightly in the same direction of your stroke as you kick continuously. As you move to your other arm do the same thing. (If that didn't make sense: as you bring your right arm back, kick slightly on the right. Same with the left. :D) Try to keep your number of kicks even for both sides. You can count how many times you kick for one stroke and just keep repeating that as you turn your body for all of your strokes. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. and so on. :D (But the number of kicks you do may be more or less than 4. Just find whatever works for you. :D) Counting your strokes for one length of the pool you use with be really helpful with backstroke flip turn. There are also pools that have two sets of flags a certain distance from both ends of the pool. Counting your strokes from the flags to the wall can also help you determine when to turn for your flip. I hope these tips will be of some use to you! Keep practicing and you may eventually be like Missy! :D

After the start and after each turn you are allowed to be underwater for 15 meters(its faster that way if you have a good fly kick. Head must surface by or before 15 m. Count your kicks underwater and work hard on your kicking if you want to be a good backstroker.

Retired too soon at such a young age, always enjoyable to watch her competing.

SHE'S MY MAJOR INSPIRATION.

she is a great swimmer, I feel bad for her she did not get the performance she wanted in rio. I guess pressure got to her this year

I miss Missy Franklin❤️, she was so good at London 2012, unfortunately disappointing in Rio 2016, hopefully she comes back Tokyo 2020

It's 2022 and I am watching this , super incredible
