We were talking to Cake 16 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 5: Campbell the other day on the show, and of course 17 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 5: the swimming starts early on in the Olympics, and then 18 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 5: obviously once your event's done, you've got to get out 19 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 5: of there. 20 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 6: But I mean, if we look. 21 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 5: Back at your history as a sportsperson and we think 22 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 5: about those closing ceremony parties. 23 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 6: That you were famous for. 24 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 5: Athlete to miss out on those, I mean, how big 25 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 5: were those parties? 26 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 3: Look I feel for I actually really generally feel for 27 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 3: the athletes, particularly because if you think about it, so 28 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 3: prior to these games, they are like something. 29 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: Like eight eight hundred and ninety eight athletes that. 30 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 3: Had been Olympians since eighteen ninety four, and when you 31 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 3: think about that, seventy three point six percent of them 32 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: go to one games. So for a lot of the 33 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 3: athletes that are on our team, this is going to 34 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 3: be the only experience they get an Olympics, and it's 35 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 3: going to be so unlike anything like Australia are shipping 36 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 3: over all of their food. 37 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: So they don't go to the dining hall. 38 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 3: When you talk to athletes from previous games, the things 39 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 3: that they love the most of those moments where they 40 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 3: see really famous athlete so they just fan girl or 41 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 3: fanboy over and those moments where they all get to 42 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: mingle and actually hang out. This is a games where 43 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 3: they won't get to do pretty much any of that, 44 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 3: depending on if they want. 45 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: To risk their life and their health and all the 46 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: rest of it. So it's they're in a really tough position. 47 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 3: Some athletes will thrive that getting wrong, and there be 48 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 3: some that cope with this so well, but there are 49 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: going to be athletes that will probably struggle with the 50 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: reality of it. Athletes around the country that have never 51 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: had to wear a face mask because COVID actually hasn't 52 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: been in their backyard obviously. The ones that are in 53 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 3: the major it is it is, but they're going over there, 54 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 3: they have to wear masks, and so I have tests 55 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: every single day, you fill out their well being apps. 56 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 3: With everything they're doing, everything is being policed within an 57 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 3: each of its life. Also, they can realize the dream 58 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 3: that they've spent their entire lives, most of them actually 59 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: building up. 60 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 6: Can you give us the heads up? 61 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: I don't think many people know, But what is going 62 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: to be the timed difference? 63 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 6: When are we getting the finals? One out, only one outside. 64 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: Only one house? 65 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 3: But they're better finals this time around. The reason I'm 66 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 3: doing the morning shifters and finals are in the morning. 67 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: So is that. 68 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 7: Better worse for an athlete to get up and have 69 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 7: to perform first thing in the morning as opposed to 70 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 7: after a long day and being in their own head 71 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 7: for that time. 72 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 3: Look, it's it's just different because there are some athletes 73 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 3: who are absolutely fire in the mornings naturally, and there 74 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 3: are some people who actually are much better in the evenings. 75 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: But like they didn't the lead up to Beijing, they've 76 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 3: known about this, so they actually did the national titles 77 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 3: where they did the finals in the mornings. The trials 78 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 3: they did differently for some reason. But you know, they 79 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: are fully prepared and knowing that that's what's going to happen, 80 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 3: so they just manished mentally reframe and recharge themselves with 81 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 3: that's the way it's going to be. 82 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 6: Griggsy. 83 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: I don't know if you've been asked this before, but 84 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: you know two personal everyone looks at swimming as one 85 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 2: of the most grueling sports, and that one of them, 86 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 2: the amount. 87 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 6: That you have to train. Do you swim now or 88 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 6: do you hate the pool? 89 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 3: Yes, that's the first time I've been asked that retired. 90 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 6: Do you still go for a swimming revolutionary? 91 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 3: I say, I actually don't. I hate cold water as 92 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 3: the lasting legacy of the pool. And also swimming, even 93 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: if you're at the absolutely lead level and you're really fit, 94 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 3: if you miss it for three or four days, you 95 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 3: honestly feel like a square one. So if I go 96 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 3: and swimming the pool, I'm just incredibly frustrated. 97 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: Takes me about three weeks. 98 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 3: Are really consistent for me to actually feel high enough 99 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 3: in the water that. 100 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: I'm not furious at myself. So I do dry land training. 101 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: I hated running a swimmagin we're all really on coo 102 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 3: on land.
