Dear Parents,
Many times members will join our team and say "now, I don't expect
my swimmer to be an olympic champion!" And I always think "there is
so much more than that!
Here are some pictures of my niece, and Coach Margot's older
sister, who just competed in the running of the Empire State
Building in NYC. I have asked her to share her competitive
"resume" which pretty much lists what she has been doing the past
couple of years! She works full time at a hospital in NYC
working with families who are dealing with cancer in their loved
one's lives and works out and competes world wide! Meghan did
not start competing until she was in HS and that, very
casually! It just shows you what you can do if you are
willing to work hard, have fun and reach for the starts!!!!
Hope you enjoyed!
