On a related note, I met someone who swam for the US team in 1996. I won't name him or his event b/c it'd be mean to identify him, but let's just say the ensuing 12 years have done absolutely horrifying things to his waistline.
When I met him, I thought that there was no way he could be a swimmer!
- mattmaroon 18y agoHa, yeah. That happens to a lot of athletes. It's a lot easier to stop swimming for 6 hours a day than it is to stop eating whatever the hell you want 6 meals a day. Also there's a lot of evidence that all of that drastically increased metabolism basically burns years off of their lives.
