"I'll be excited to see how we perform in the Commonwealth Games," he continued. "In my view, it's not the swimmers; the swimmers were working hard, they were doing what they needed to do. It was a misfire and I suspect, it wasn't one factor it was a number of factors that conspired to prevent them from winning medals.
"Hopefully the next time round, the environment generated and everything else, will be in tune so there is not that misfire."
In the meantime though, Goodhew will be focusing on this year's Swimathon event as the popularity of the fundraising swim continues to grow.
He added: "People can have different challenges and they can also swim as a team. That's what has really built the success of Swimathon; it is open to swimmers who might not have the ability to swim 5,000m all on their own but if they can club together with friends or business colleagues, they can easily do it."
"It's phenomenal; our swimmers have raised over £38 million for charity so it's been absolutely amazing to be a part of."
