They were joined by Ashley Callus and Todd Pearson and together they tore the waters apart in a time of 3:16.42 to set a new Commonwealth record. Thorpe commented, “I went out there and gave it my best shot. I’m going to do that with every race.” Hackett added, “That was the first time for me in that relay.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

    Performance Studies, Sport, and Affect in the Twenty-First Century by Kelsey Blair M.A., University of British Columbia, 2014 M.A., University of Toronto, 2010 B.A., University of British Columbia, 2007 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Kelsey Blair 2019 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Spring 2019 Copyright in this work rests with the author. Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Approval Name: Kelsey Blair Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Title: Performance Studies, Sport, and Affect in the Twenty-First Century Examining Committee: Chair: Clint Burnham Professor Peter Dickinson Senior Supervisor Professor Dara Culhane Supervisor Professor Coleman Nye Supervisor Assistant Professor Ann Travers Internal Examiner Associate Professor Department of Sociology and Anthropology Susan Bennett External Examiner Professor Department of English University of Calgary Date Defended/Approved: April 16, 2019 ii Abstract Richard Schechner, one of the founders of performance studies, urges scholars to expand their conceptualization of performance to include a broad spectrum of framed and/or displayed human behaviours. While this call to action has strongly influenced the interdisciplinary impulse of performance studies and prompted important cross- disciplinary investigations between performance genres such as theatre, dance, performance art, political performance, ritual, and play, sport has remained under- theorized in the field. In this project, I begin to fill this gap by approaching the practices, activities, and events of twenty-first century sport through the lens of performance studies.

  • Analysis of Stroke Rates in Freestyle Events at 2000 Olympics
    ANALYSIS OF STROKE RATES IN FREESTYLE EVENTS AT 2000 OLYMPICS By David Pyne & Cassie Trewin Department of Physiology, Australian Institute of Sport The aim of this article is to examine the patterns of stroke rates of successful swimmers during the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. Stroke rates of swimmers in the Final (top 8 swimmers) of selected Freestyle events were taken from the Competition Analysis of the 2000 Olympic Games (courtesy of the Biomechanics Department, Australian Institute of Sport). The stroke rates for each 25, 50 or 100m race split and placing in the 50, 100, 200 and 400 m freestyle events were collated. The interesting questions are … Were there differences in stroke rates between the sprint (50 and 100m) and middle-distance (200 and 400m) events? Were there any differences in stroke rates between the Men’s and Women’s events? How much variation in stroke rate was evident between swimmers in the same event? And how much difference was observed between first and last lap stroke rates compared to the average for the event for each individual swimmer. The individual and mean stroke rates for each of the finalists in the 50, 100, 200 and 400 Freestyle events are presented in Table 1. Statistical analysis (data not shown) indicated that there were no significant correlations between average stroke rate on any lap and final placing. The only exception was the Women’s 400m Freestyle where the placegetters had a significantly higher average stroke rate over the race than those swimmers finishing outside the medals. This indicates that there is considerable variation in stroke rate between different swimmers at the Olympic level.
