The Olympics
So as a swimmer i am drawn to the Olympic swimmers. It just blows me away how absolutely fast they are. We watched the prelims and drove through Nebraska where they were taking place. Whether it is Michael Phelps or Dara Torres i am constantly impressed. But wow Dara Torres is insane. If you don't know who i am talking about i put a picture. But here are some fast facts that will prove how amazing she is. She is 41 years old making her the oldest woman to ever qualify for the olympics, she's broken swimming records in the Olympic Trials & is competing in Beijing in one month!! She has already competed in 5 Olympics & won 9 medals!! She was once Bulimic and overcome it. She's also overcome numerous surgeries and has a Daughter. Crazy. What a wonder woman. I hope i look this good when i am 40!! ha ha
