I walked away from the sport for 17 years, then started swimming again recently in a master's program.

One of the most difficult things for people who have been successful in sports is adapting to the daily world where you can't get an answer from someone until 5 o'clock tomorrow. There is always an excuse. Living 40 or 50 years like that doesn't get too exciting after a while

It has nothing to do with swimming. That happens to be my sport. I'm trying to see how far I can go

I'm trying to do the best I can. I'm not concerned with tomorrow, but with what goes on today.
