4 Reasons Your Not Michael Phelps
I used to swim in high school.
Yup, this fat kid used to be lean & mean and wreaked of chlorine.
It seems like 10 million years ago now. Spending my days in the pool, putting miles in the pool until my arms didn’t work anymore. Eating everything I could get my hands on… because… when you swim that much, you can’t keep up with your metabolism.
Oh how times have changed.
With the USA swimming phenom Michael Phelps grabbing more gold than Uncle Scrooge, it is easy to think about how it could have been me. Standing atop the platform waiting for a bald guy to hand you a big fatass gold medal… as the world watches your ever move.
Tough life.
Here are the reasons I fell short, and you can take them and apply them to your situations and learn a little as well.
