PARALYMPIC athlete Jessica Long will be the subject of a 20-minute feature, Long Way Home: The Jessica Long Story, that will air within NBC\u2019s Olympic coverage this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Long Way Home chronicles the story of Long, a world-class swimmer, 12-time Paralympic gold medalist, and 21-year old American from a Baltimore suburb, who was born in Russia and adopted by American parents.

Originally named Tatiana Olegovna Kirillova, Long retraces her adoption back to her orphanage in Irkutsk, Russia, and on to what would have been her hometown of Bratsk, deep in the heart of Siberia. It\u2019s here that we see the overwhelming moment where she comes face-to-face for the first time, not only with her birth mother, but her biological father, brothers and sisters \u2013 the Russian family she had never met.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an adventure that takes her more than 7,000 miles from the world and family she grew up knowing. From the States to Siberia, the journey is a test for her physically and mentally, but through it all Long poignantly takes us through the process of coming to grips with her Russian roots. In the end it leads her to a profound personally discovery, her two half\u2019s have helped make her the whole individual that she is \u2013 Jessica Tatiana Long.<\/p>\n<p>A production team from NBC Olympics accompanied Long on a three-day journey to reach the adoption center in Irkutsk and the 18-hour train ride to Bratsk.<\/p>\n<p><i>The above article is a press release submitted to Swimming World.
