Yeah I graduated 2 years ago and just kinda fell out with swimming but I just went to my schools champs and they all did amazing especially my roommate who was at a very similar skill level. He made a nationals cut and was less than half a second off 2 other cuts. It was sad thinking that I should’ve been a part of the team this year but I graduated early… I told myself my only goal was to never say “what if…?” But now I’ve been thinking what if I had 3 more years of it? Covid fucked it up so I only had 1 year of collegiate swimming.

Personally I would be sure to keep swimming. I played basketball and I finally figured out that what I missed was the social side, the camaraderie, the high fives and shit talk. I started playing in high end men’s leagues and I was surprised to find that I was a way better player at 30 than I was in college, and I enjoyed it more.
