I knew all these people had the same goals I did, but the one that worked the hardest would come out on top. That’s what drove me all the time. But I had fun. I did better every day, and that’s what made it fun.
Debbie Meyer Quotes
I knew what my times were and how my practices were progressing and how close I was to the goals I had set for the year. I swam hard. I always swam hard. If I didn't, I knew I would pay for it either the next day or the next meet.
