If Australia's swim team were to nominate a spiritual leader, it would almost certainly be the irrepressible Cate Campbell.

A sprint sensation whose Olympic journey began in Beijing 2008, Cate is a four-time Olympic gold medallist. At the age of 32, she's all in for one more shot at the greatest show on earth, aiming to make the Australian team for an incredible fifth time at the upcoming Australian swim trials.

Universally admired and tough as teak, Cate is hoping to traverse the Road to Paris.
