Left Sidebar
This is the Poll Of The Week for Friday, September 16th, 2016 sponsored by Strechcordz Swim Training Products. In our last poll, we wanted to know: When You Think Of The Rio Olympics, Which Athlete Will Come To Your Mind First?
The results are in and…

Here are the answers:
Michael Phelps (57%)
Katie Ledecky (32%)
Ryan Lochte (11%)




Katie Ledecky. She owns the 13 fastest times in the 800 meter free. Not to downplay Michael Phelps’s achievements (which are phenomenal), but my vote goes to Katie.
Three things that this Olympic Games will be remembered for (swimming): records of Katie Ledecky, Anthony Ervin and Michael Phelps. Times, age, medals count. All of them are of same longevity – many of us won’t see them broken by somebody else.
