Swimming is normal for me. I'm relaxed. I'm comfortable and I know my surroundings. It's my home.
The man who is swimming against the stream knows the strength of it.
This is my 20th year in the sport. I've known swimming and that's it. I don't want to swim past age 30; if I continue after this Olympics and come back in 2016 I'll be 31. I'm looking forward to being able to see the other side of the fence.
