He topped the first heat against Oman's Mohammed Al-Habsi and Cook Islands' Petero Okotai in a lifetime best of 1:10.83. Aarag, however, failed to advance into the semi-finals, as he placed sixty-first out of sixty-five swimmers in the overall rankings.{{cite web|title=Swimming: Men's 100m Breaststroke – Heat 1|url=http://www.2008.nbcolympics.com/swimming/resultsandschedules/rsc=SWM031900/index.html|work=Beijing 2008|publisher=NBC Olympics|accessdate=8 December 2012|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120821062328/http://www.2008.nbcolympics.com/swimming/resultsandschedules/rsc%3DSWM031900/index.html|archivedate=21 August 2012}}
