    Hungary’s Zsuzsanna Jakabos focusing before the women’s 200 freestyle at the FINA / Arena 2012 Swimming World Cup leg in Berlin, Germany. She was fourth in 1:55.60, but won silver in the women’s 200 IM a few moments later, plus silver in the 400 IM and the 200 butterfly and bronze in the 100 IM the next day, so it was probably okay. Busy lady.
