Team England's Elizabeth Simmonds has claimed that she will head almost straight back into training for the European Aquatics Championships after the Glasgow Commonwealth Games.
The 23-year-old failed to medal in both the 100m and 200m backstroke finals at Tollcross, but has reached the semi-finals of the 50m after coming third in this morning's heat in a time of 29 seconds.
While Simmonds will have a few days to herself, the Beverley-born swimmer is planning to jump into training for the European Championships, which get underway in Berlin on August 13.
"We head straight back after [Tuesday]," Simmonds told Sports Mole. "I think we get a couple of days off and then we'll be back into training for a couple of weeks before the Europeans.
"I think I would probably only have time off if I wasn't doing those. I'll have a couple of days just to come down mentally, but then back into training."
England have so far won 19 medals in the pool.
