Dara Torres: The four-time Olympian who wants to make it five scored heavy in Monte Carlo!
Erik Hochstein once told Bill and I; (Erik and Bill can be seen swimming in the UCLA Bruins Masters Swim Meet movie), that if Dara Torres makes it to the finals at Olympic trials, and she gets up on those blocks, and she hears the crowd, and she knows it could be her last 50... And then he started cracking up! Well, she swam faster last week but today she swam like it was her last 50 and beat two notable simmers.
In the Mare Nostrum at Monte Carlo, Dara handed everybody their bum in the 50 free in a time of 25:00 flat! Victims include Jodie Henry and Alice Mills. Can she get even faster?
Peter Vanderkaay felled Hackett in the 400 free in a time of 3:48.02
Natalie Coughlin was there too. grabbed a third in the 100 fly. Swimming World Link: [Link]
