Dara Torress - my inspiration

Dara Torres is the fastest female American swimmer on the U.S. Olympic team -- she's also the oldest swimmer on the squad. At 41 years old, Torres has won nine Olympic medals and looks to increase her career haul in Beijing starting with the 4x400m free.


Take a look how she is rocking the world.

Her innovative training techniques and fitness are keeping her ahead from competition.
I am impressed, moved and inspired as a former professional swimmer and I have to say that Dara Torres is my hero.

I want to congratulate to her personal trainer and coach Micahel Lohberg.

Two weeks after Torres made the Olympic team, the man who helped her get there, personal coach and friend Michael Lohberg, was diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia-a rare and potentially fatal blood disorder.

"I feel like I'm going out there to Beijing and doing this for Michael and making Michael proud," Torres says. "And hopefully putting a smile on his face.

No one could pull off this without personal trainers, coaches, nutritionists, personal masseuses, personal stretchers, and the list continues.

I love you guys!
