Im pleased to say that in telling them, and especially my parents, they told me that they love me and they support me. And for young people out there, know that thats usually what the answer is.

I think now I'll probably take a few days off and enjoy the competition and then sit down with a few people and work out what is next, work out what the next preparation will be and what competition will be next.

The only thing is I am a little bit ashamed of is I didn't come out earlier, that I didn't have the strength to do it, the courage to break that lie. But everyone goes on their own path to do this, and I don't want the struggle to be so hard for other people.

I'll go for broke. Swim faster. It's not going to be easy - this whole thing was never going to be easy.

Sometimes we question things that we have done in our lives but how many times do we question what we haven't done in someone else's?

I think it's better to attempt something and fail than it is to not even attempt it, so I'm glad that I've been prepared to put myself on the line there.

This is why relays are so important, because you can find more in yourself for someone else, than what you can ever find for yourself.
