Seppälä voitti oman eränsä ajalla 53,60 ja oli samalla koko alkuerien nopein.- Itse annoin kyllä mennä ihan täysiä, vaikka osa porukasta selvästi vähän löysäili, kertoi iloinen uimari heti noustuaan altaasta.- Ei itseltäni ehkä ihan nappisuoritus, mutta enpä toisaalta lähtisi heti kamalasti korjailemaankaan.- Ehdottoman kivaa saada kuitenkin näin hyvä uinti alle ajatellen huomista, säteilevä ennätysnainen sanoi.Suomen ennätys ei tullu Seppälälle yllätyksenä.- Sen verran kovassa sakissa tuossa mentiin, että osasin odottaa hyvää aikaa. Ajattelin, että uin ajaksi noin 53,80, että ihan näin kovaa aikaa en osannut odottaa.- Täysillä tästä lähdetään nyt eteenpäin. Nyt levätään hyvin ja tankataan hyvin, ja aletaan valmistautua huomisiin välieriin.
