By now you have heard that Dara Torres set a US record in the Semi finals of the 50 meter freestyle at 24:38. And at 41 will be the oldest ever athlete to swim for a US Olympic Team.
What you probably didn't hear her say, when asked about her speed, "Dara you swim like you're going to swim through the wall" Dara: "that's because (at age 41) I can't see the wall."
