My suit blew up into a parachute. All this water rushed in, there's air, water in there. I was freaking out.

I want people to see the passion I have for swimming and become more involved in the sport.

I love working out. I mean, I've been doing it for about 20 years every day of my entire life. So I enjoy working out.

After my swims this weekend I think coach realized, you know what, you have to have a good one getting out of this meet. So I put the suit on and had a decent swim.

It's so hard to express yourself, because swimmers are pretty much paying attention to a black line for hours out of a day.

I'm going to focus on speed, doing little things like my turns and my starts - just speed.

There's so much more to me than swimming. I like to go and have fun, like to go dancing, hang out with my friends.
