I wrote last year that Dara Torres did something special. Little did I know that she'd outdo herself in grand fashion by winning the 100 free at Olympic Trials. That's right, a forty-one year old qualified for a fifth Olympic team. It's pretty impressive to think that at 41, you can do lifetime bests in the sprints at that level. It makes me wish I had the scratch to hire a team of stretchers, trainers, and nannies. In any case, my hat's off to you again, Dara. Go show the Chinese what drug-free and fast looks like... just don't forget to wear your contacts so you can see the scoreboard. I hope that Tessa makes it to China to make an appearance on the medal stand.
