Nice piece in today’s NYTimes, including bits about the support she got at Stanford. Refreshing perspective given sports parents who all too often push for success at any cost. She seems really grounded and hopefully will avoid the challenges that some of the other top women swimmers have encountered.

Love this story, thanks for sharing. We are so lucky to have had so many world class athletes who are also such grounded, thoughtful people. Definitely one of the good ones.
