I have the pleasure of living near Jeff, and I get to see him at local meets. He is always a great guy to deal with, unswervingly humble despite his many accolades.
What I really love is that he is still the consummate competitor, always looking to improve. When I watch his races, he eats up any feedback I can give him afterwards. And he's kind enough to provide me with his insight on my races as well.
His pic in the ESPN body issue is inspiring!
