According to Bulldog teammate <strong>Anna McKenzie<\/strong>, \u201cShe always throws down something insane.\u201d And this is exactly what we hope to see from her at the upcoming Games. We should all be excited to watch her race and see what insanity she has in store. Hali, a powerful force in the pool, is also known as being a silent leader on her team, letting her training set an example and inspire others.<\/p>\n<h2>2. She trains hard, but races even harder.<\/h2>\n<p>Hali has a great mindset and it shows in her love for racing. She doesn\u2019t like easy wins though&#8211; she likes being pushed to win. The\u00a0200 fly is a difficult race, and many swimmers wouldn\u2019t touch it with a ten-foot skimmer pole, but Hali has made this race her own. Whenever she races, she\u2019s consistent, tough, and reliable. She will be adding these important qualities along with her ability to perform no matter what the stage to the star-studded Olympic Team.<\/p>\n<h2>3.
