Fun fact: the first time
@Robert_Finke
beat me in practice we were doing a set of 300’s and he came from behind on the last 50 and out touched me. I was the first Finke to be Finke’ed

Sometimes I wake up in a panic thinking I’m late for practice.
I haven’t had practice in 3 years

Being a former athlete has given me an intense fear of being late to literally anything.
If I’m not 15 minutes early, something’s wrong and I’m panicking or I’ve been kidnapped

Huge shout out to
@kylesockwell
for keeping the Olympic swimming newsfeed so alive. Y’all don’t realize how exhausting it can be to keep up with every single swim and headline 🇺🇸

It’s stupid that you can get third at Pan Pacs and not get a medal or anything due to the rule that only two per country can get top 8. If you’re fast then you’re fast and everyone should want to compete against the best. Welcome to my Ted Talk

It’s not about the medals or the records. It’s about the person behind those accomplishments.
Through the tough times, through injuries and setbacks, his ability to remain humble and resilient inspires me to be a better sister, a better daughter, and a better person

No?

I think it’s time we start taking “lost the gold”, “historically poor”, “fails to medal”, etc. out of news headlines.
Don’t claim to care about the mental health of these athletes and then use phrasing that is harmful.

Life post college athletics is very confusing. What do I eat, when do I eat, how do I work out, when do I workout, do I go to bed now, do I go to bed later, should I snooze my alarm 5 times or 6?

Top responses when people find out I used to swim:
“Do you wear that thing on your head?”
“I bet I can beat you”
“Do you know Michael Phelps?”
“So, like, were you good?”
“Can you do that butterfly thing?”
“Do you like wearing flippers?”
“I can tell, your shoulders are massive”

Cancelling NCAA events is devastating for everyone. Athletes, staff, adviors, parents, etc.
To all affected:
Your accomplishments, dedication, and hard work are things that cannot possibly add up to one competition. These skills will be with you forever. We’re all with you

I thought that just because my college swim career was over that I would be a swammer. I can tell you one thing, once a swimmer always a swimmer. This sport has taught me so much and although I won’t be on the competing end of it, I will never be a swammer. Happy Monday 🌻

Can we PLEASE get equal television coverage of distance events. I get not wanting to watch timed final heats but distance swimmers work just as hard as sprinters to get half the credit

Well...today, October 22nd... it finally happened.
I slipped on the pool deck.... and instead of just falling.... my body propelled me forward and I landed right in front of Ryan Lochte’s lane. The only words I could muster were an “oh no”.
Sorry I must quit my job now

Things I’ve gained after running a marathon:
The inability to stand on my legs
The ability to sleep for 12+ hours
The most muscle soreness I’ve ever had
A sense of accomplishment beyond words

With Olympic season and trials in full swing:
A friendly reminder to not speak negatively on any athletes’ performance. You have no idea what these athletes have gone through mentally, how covid has impacted their training, or who has had to sit out for extended amounts of time

I think one of the most important lessons in life is learning that you can’t control someone else’s actions. Focus on yourself and do what makes you happy, no matter what everyone else thinks
