My New Hero

My new hero is...Dara Torres!

She's 21 days older than me, and just look at her! (Oops, did I just give away my age?) I can't wait to see how well she performs at the Olympics. She's already got one medal (this time -- she's got tons of others from her previous four times!)

In case you're living under a rock, and don't know who she is, google her or check out her wikipedia page.

I just thought I'd provide a little inspiration here!

I watched the TV stuff about her too. The thing I was impressed with was that something like 3 weeks after giving birth she was back training. That makes you realize that there are very few excuses for not getting off your butt.

I love Dara. I mean, everyone is telling her she's too old. But she kicks their butt in the pool! And she's got a sense of humor, which is probably essential.

Go Dara!
