Wow, this Dara Torres is amazing. 41 years old and she qualifies for the Olympics two years after having a baby. She qualified by beating out other women half her age. I read that she has been undergoing voluntary drug testing very often, to dispel any rumors that at that age, she must be taking something.
It's a great story, and I hope she medals in Beijing and that she is clean. We don't need another Marion Jones, Floyd Landis, etc. giving multiple denials only to recant when the evidence proves otherwise. This will be one story to watch in what promises to be an exciting Olympics (if one can wade through all the gymnastics coverage and individual profiles of each gymnast and their pets).
