A fan who was inspired by Michael Phelps, he writes,
"Yessss!!!! I'm 47 and swimming again, because you inspired me to try! As a retired Ironman athlete, it's really been so joyful to get back in the water! Not to be too gushy, but also your commercial on mental health."

"What does the one leg-sleeve do? Compression? Fashion? Just curious."
What is Michael Phelps currently doing?
Given his impressive collection of Olympic medals, Michael Phelps is perhaps the greatest Olympian of all time. No other Olympic athlete has come close to winning 28 medals throughout the five Games, and his 23 gold medals are unmatched.
The Baltimore native, 37, was made for the water. Phelps' 6-foot-4 height, broad shoulders, massive hands, and feet that resemble fins make his body ideal for his chosen sport. Although he has now retired from swimming.
The father of three adorable sons, Phelps is a great family man. He and his wife Nicole and their children are busy traveling the world. He is also busy competing in another field, golf.
