To read more about Shane Gould, see this blog entry
In this online article in Swimming World, Ms Gould told the author, Craig Lord that
"She made sure she could cover all the basics, like lighting a fire with a flint; working out the kind of games she would be good at, the kind she would not. While some felt a need to win at every turn, Gould identified the things she was not the best at, did what was required not to fail but wasted no more energy than necessary in pursuit of what could not be won."
Anyone who has doubts about “how she did it” needs to read her autobiography, Tumble Turns! Talk about a story of resilience and the acquisition of the mental and physical skills needed to weave your way through a communal experience and emerge a champion once again!
