Abby owns her own retail business and we talk about the obstacles she’s facing today, as well as a past crush she and other girl swimmers had on a particular boy swimmer....hint, he’s going to be on Conversations with Coach next week!

In this conversation, Coach and I talk to Ed Walsh. Ed still holds the 500yd free record. Amazingly, Coach found Ed in Freshman PE. His first time swimming the 500, he went a 6:47, four years later, he’s swimming under 5min and winning Sectional Titles.
