After my cancer diagnosis, I really took my swimming to a new level.

I don't let myself get upset about the little nitpicky things anymore.

At 28, you need recovery time after training.

Being happy outside the pool means fast swimming in the pool.

I've kind of got an out in cancer. It keeps things in perspective for me.

I miss my dad every day, but I know he would be proud to see me continuing to swim and going for another shot at the Olympics.

I think you have to be weird to swim breaststroke.
