Ariarne Titmus recounted her experiences of training under the sun as a swimmer. In a conversation, Titmus remarked that in some of the training sessions, the sun exposure is very high and the risk of getting exposed to the UV Rays is also severe.

She further said, that due to these risk factors, her coach gave her and the other swimmers some time to make sure that they had sunscreen on. Titmus said (via Harper's Bazaar Australia):

"As an athlete training eight to ten hours outdoors, that sun exposure is extreme and at times, the UV can be at high, extremely high levels. You’re exposing yourself to a lot of sun. So before getting in the water, especially for afternoon sessions in summer, our coach would give us five minutes to lather each other up and make sure we all had sunscreen on. Over time I’ve had little freckles pop up on my arms, and I know it’s later in life that you notice sun exposure."

During the interview, Ariarne Titmus also said that indulging in skincare activities is something she has been enjoying of late in her career owing to which some of the routines have also changed.
