Favorite Masters meet
-
My very first meet where I had no idea what I was doing but somehow was able to get a couple of first place ribbons. Of course – my sisters LOVED to point out that I was the only competitor in my age group 🤷🏽♀️. Also enjoyed the outdoor Detroit Yacht Club meet.

A Ledecky which is a 200 free/100 free/2 x50 free with 20 sec rest after each one
- What is something you need to improve or are constantly working on in the pool? SO much. My catch, my kick, my turn, speed.

Favorite Olympian
-
Sheila Taormina who won a gold medal in Atlanta in 96. I was there covering the games for WDIV and she was our hometown girl! She then became an Olympic triathlete. She’s just a bad ass. I also was fortunate enough to cover Allison Schmitt during her entire career and get to know not only Allison but her family too. Class acts all around. And finally Katie Ledecky because she’s Katie Ledecky!
