Swimming Is Our ‘Crazy Love’

As my swimmer says, when you reach that point, swimming is a part of you in a deeper way than when you are simply a part of swimming. They make the sport fun, exhilarating and an amazing adventure.

About five to six years ago, my daughter started to practice more and more at 4:45 in the morning. In the area we live, swimming is popular and pool space is sparse. To reach higher levels in the sport and do doubles, it was what you had to do.

She and her pals coined the phrase “Crazy Love.” Swimming was their “Crazy Love.” 

What I’ve discovered on this amazing journey with her is just how right they were and still are. To become a leader in this sport and to inspire others to pursue the dream, swimming needs athletes with a “Crazy Love.”
