You learn how every element of her life\u2014from the support of her family to the tutelage of her coaches, from her childhood spent in summer league swimming to the bright lights of Olympic pools in London, Rio, and Tokyo\u2014set her up to become the champion she is.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ledecky, who will turn 27 later this month, is one of the most decorated swimmers in history, male or female.
