My friend just announced that her grandfather swam in the Olympics, when the swimming competion was done in the Hudson River. She is 40.
What does she mean by this? I don't think any Olympics were in NY, but could they have trained there? Or is she fibbing? :joker:
Just curious...SmartSwimmeroftheDay award to the person who knows!
There is a major issue of people not really knowing the difference between the Olympic Games and any other athletic competition. Just because your apartment building advertises an "olympic" sized pool does not make it so. I swam in the senior olympics back when they were still called that. Does that make me an olympian? No, and I do not present myself as one.
