“I didn’t want to have that regret in the back of my mind for the rest of my life. I wanted to do it while I still had a chance, while it was still possible." @bowe_becker's journey to Olympic gold is nothing short of incredible 👏⤵️

After a lot of thinking and evaluating this past year, I have decided it is time for me to retire from the sport of swimming. This was not an easy decision to make, but I know it’s what is best for me.
After a lot of thinking and evaluating this past year, I have decided it is time for me to retire from the sport of swimming. This was not an easy decision to make, but I know it’s what is best for me. I have been swimming since I was 11 years old and not by choice. For years, it was just to stay healthy because of my Rheumatoid Arthritis, but it became more than that. I was good at it and I loved athletics. The friendships and work ethic I have gained because of this sport was worth all the hard work. There are way too many people to thank personally in this post, but I want to start with my family. They supported me the whole way and were there every step of the way. To all of my coaches through the years, THANK YOU!!! I know it was not an easy task coaching me. Thank you @gopherswimdive for always believing in me and being the place that got me to where I am now in this sport. Thank you to @tyrsport for supporting me in my final year and believing in me. Finally, I want to thank @ja

Well… wasn’t quite the meet I was looking for. Now it’s just time to take some time off and evaluate what I did these past 9 months and think about what I need to do differently. I will keep everybody updated on my next move.

Well, San Antonio TYR meet didn’t go too well. But on the bright side it showed me a lot of things I can work on as I head into World Trials in 3 weeks. Time to put my head down and finally get some LCM training in as I taper😅
