To me, Dana Torres personfies Olympic Glory. It certainly seems like, especially for many of the female sports, that the "best" who are competing are women (girls) under age 25.
Ms. Torres was the oldest swimmer to have won an Olympic medal at age 33. She crushed her record by 8 years. She inspires me because she quit the sport, and her comeback came about because she loves what she does. To me, it's a reminder that as the first blush of youth fades, with hard work and dedication, there are still dreams within our reach.
Cheers to you, Ms. Torres!
