The first thing many people ask me once they learn I am a swimmer, if they are unfamiliar with the sport, is if I am going to Olympics. My answer is always a scoff and a resounding “no.†My highest achievement in the sport has been becoming an All-American at DIII Nationals, with a time that wouldn’t even be close to qualifying for the DI equivalent.
At the same time, however, while I am nowhere near the qualifying times, I have certainly put in the working time to feel as though I shouldn’t have to dismiss the Olympics question quite so easily.
I have been swimming for just as many years as Missy Franklin, but that’s about all we have in common. I didn’t go on to make it to Junior Nationals or Nationals. I certainly didn’t qualify for Trials, let alone set a world record before I entered college.Â
