| GENERAL INFORMATION |
|
Finest ever performance/Why: My Commonwealth Record in the 400IM at the Olympic Trials. I looked at the clock, saw 4minutes 12 seconds on the scoreboard and thought ‘wow’. Earlier in the meet my swims were pretty average so I was just hoping to make the qualifying time. The time was such a shock.
First senior international meet: European Short Course Championships Trieste 2005.
My aspirations are: To keep enjoying swimming. If I am happy I can swim well.
Tip for the top: I’m not there yet!
Life after swimming: No idea, that’s a long way off. I hope!
Music: My i-pod is quite random contains lots of tracks. I listen to dance music before I swim.
If I wasn’t a swimmer I would be a: Not sure maybe a gymnast. I’d like to be able to do a back-flip.
Football, Cricket or Rugby: No interest in either. I live in a bubble.
Describe yourself in three words: Determined / Fun / Mad
Would most like to meet: No one really
Most prized possession: Mobile phone and my tortoise called tortoise! Its original, who calls their dog ‘dog’?
Biggest influence on career: My parents and my swimming coach
