Jim,
A few years ago I was lucky enough to attend the Golden Goggles awards when they were here in Los Angeles. I got to sit at a table with Janet Evans and Brian Goodell...a thrill for me.
After the ceremonies I got to chat with many swimmers including Rowdy, Cullen Jones and Jason Lezak. I also spoke to Michael.
I said to him, "You know, when you are done there is always Masters swimming." He looked at me and said, "When I'm done, I'm done!":bolt:
I am sure that's what Thorpe thought too, but then the fathood began to accumulate...
I do wonder how easy it is going to be for these guys to adjust their caloric intake post mega-training. I mean you eat 7000-12,000 calories a day for 15 years, I think it's gotta be a major adjustment to go down to 2000-3000!
