here's to future swimming medals

Went to the Olympic size pool again tonight. I am getting really addicted to it.
The City of Liverpool swimming team was just finishing training when I arrived. I got talking to one of the coaches who I used to talk to occasionally when they trained at Everton Park.
I asked if the improved facilities were paying dividends yet. He told me the team was in a national final this coming weekend, the first time for many years.
Who knows, we may have an Olympic champion from Liverpool in 2012, but I think the commonwealth games in 2014, or the 2016 Olympics are more realistic targets.
These young people train really hard. I dont know what the training regime is now, but I know that when they trained at Everton Park, they trained both BEFORE and AFTER school. I also know that their school work was not allowed to suffer. These young people deserve every chance of success.
