“The best combination of sport and travel!”
“Good thing about sport, you meet people. It gives you a chance to travel, to new places you haven’t been.”
“I just want to see what I’m capable of!”
“If you want to do something, you do it, go for it! You don’t have to be in this. I’m swimming against myself, I’m living against myself.”
