We the people of the United States…love a good race. It’s never more apparent than during an election year/Olympic year. And in this season of love, I thought it would be an appropriate time to muse about our infatuation with racing.

I think back to my cloth cap and pillow-gasket goggle days and recall having a bit of an upset stomach as a 7-year-old en route to a summer league meet. I had never felt this physical reaction to nerves before and I was not sure what to make of it. Was it something I ate? Or is this feeling in my tummy really because I want to be the neighborhood breaststroke queen? Turns out it was the latter. The nerves almost made me puke in high school, but I thought that’s the point I needed to get to in order to know I was race ready. Well, I was wrong. Ralphing doesn’t help race preparedness, but caring a healthy amount certainly does. I now miss the flutter in my gut. That flutter indicates commitment, competitiveness, and a true love for racing.
