Dream Big

It Doesn't Pay to Dream Small |
"We don't have a clue as to what people's limits are. All the tests, stopwatches, and finish lines in the world can't measure human potential. When someone is pursuing their dream, they'll go far beyond what seems to be their limitations. The potential that exists within us is limitless and largely untapped...When you think of limits, you create them."

Anna de Tar came to Seattle for a single race, and she dropped over two tenths in her 50 free. Anna was only a few hundredths away from making finals, and while she was disappointed in that, it was still a wonderful swim. We look forward to Anna chasing down the Senior cut in the 50 free next!
