World champ!

Got a couple of texts from my swim buddy, Chris, who is competing in the World Swimming Championships in Singapore.  He won his first race!  His time was 1:01:58 in the 100 metre freestyle, which is amazing.  With three more to go, I am trying to follow him on the internet.

I mean, I knew he was a great swimmer, with several national championships under his belt, but to win in world's is amazing!  His texts greet me with "Hey champ...", which is ludicrous, but much appreciated.  Here he is with one of his sons:

He races in the 65 to 69 age category.  Don't know when this was taken, but he still looks like that.  What an inspiration!

Going to keep an eye on his astonishing results.  Who knew we had a world champ in little, old Cochrane?!
