Interview: Too Old at Twenty
Do you remember Sally Green, the swimming star? She was the girl who broke all the records at the last Olympics. Where is she now? Last week our reporter, Tom Parker, went to see Sally in her Californian home.
Tom: Is it true that you don't swim at all now?
Sally: I’m afraid so. I’m too old.
Tom: But you're only twenty!
Sally: That’s too old for a swimmer. If I swam in an international competition now, I wouldn’t win. So I’d rather not swim at all.
Tom: But don't you enjoy swimming?
Sally: I used to, when I was small. But if you enter for big competitions you have to work very hard. I used to get up at 6 a.m. to go to the pool. I had to train before school, after school and at weekends. I swam thirty-five miles every week!
