Yehaw! for 41 year old Dara Torres who just qualified to swim as a member of the US Olympic team.  Not only do I find it amazing but I am in awe.  Not only did she qualify as a member of the US Olympic team but she set records doing so.  I learned something listening to an interview with her.

She was explaining that she doesn’t swim as much as she use to when she was younger.  She does a lot more strength training and stretching.  She says that stretching is almost as important as swimming is for her body as recovery is a top priority.

Watch the interview yourself here.
