I could see myself still swimming because I'm really enjoying the sport. But at the same time I have this biological clock that is ticking.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As long as I'm enjoying swimming, I will keep swimming.
If I just swam all day, I'd lose it. That's why I do so many other activities. It keeps me sane.
I concentrate on preparing to swim my race and let the other swimmers think about me, not me about them.
I can't imagine what I would be doing if I wasn't swimming. It is what I want to do now; it is what I want to do in the foreseeable future, and that is what I'm focusing on.
I try to separate my personal life from swimming.
And I guess the thing that I really sort of rely on in me is that I love racing and I love competing and so I know that you know when the time comes and the pressure's on and I have to swim well, I'm sort of able to pull it out and sort of get the best out of myself.
I'm really looking forward to just concentrating on the swimming part now instead of what's going on with me outside the pool.
I won't give up swimming, even if it kills me. I love the rhythm of it.
I think I'd struggle to get excited by synchronised swimming.
I'm still swimming.
