Ariarne Titmus reflects on the expectations of the Olympic Games
Ariarne Titmus is one of the most prominent Australian competitive swimmers and trains under coach Dean Boxall. She has solidified her standings by achieving multiple accolades throughout her career.
During her interview with the Olympics after the competition, Titmus shared her thoughts on balancing the mental and physical exhaustion accompanied by the Olympics. She said:
“I knew what to expect physically and emotionally coming into this from learning from the last Olympics. Emotionally, this week, I had so much expectation on me the past few years to go back-to-back and continue my winning streak internationally, the 400 especially.”
She continued:
“I'm so proud of my efforts this week. Two gold, two silver. Couldn't defend my 200, but certainly happy that it was my training partner that won, and to be second to her is great. I'm just so happy with my weekend. I can't wait for a big rest.”
Titmus is a world record holder in the 400-meter freestyle and 200-meter freestyle (long course). In 2022, she was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for her decorated achievements in the sport.
