For the first time in 6 YEARS, I went a best time in my 200 Fly. Due to surgeries, mental health, & other personal issues I haven’t had a healthy season since summer of 2013. If you’re frustrated, don’t give up because it’s beyond worth it!!!#dreambig @USASwimming @UGASwimDive

Age 17: 16:50 in the SCY mile. Age 21: 15:54. Last night, at age 29, unshaved + at the end of a 70K+ training week, I went 15:30.9. Young athletes: there are multiple trajectories to success, and there is no predetermined age at which you reach full potential. Keep working hard.
