Ian Thorpe Swim Quotations

I'll go for broke. Swim faster. It's not going to be easy - this whole thing was never going to be easy.

I thought I could, and thought I would, swim a lot quicker - much quicker.

I wasn't happy with it at all. I thought I would go faster than what I did last night (in the semi-finals) so it's pretty disappointing. I didn't swim as fast as I did last night. It's as simple as that.

Nowhere near as sluggish for a morning swim this morning, so I was comfortable and hopefully it'll be a bit faster tonight.

I am a bit disappointed with it, but it served its purpose. There is no reason I felt pretty ordinary and did not swim well today.
