Hey, I was just wondering who you swim for. I'm trying to get a good feel of colleges I swim at, and I'm assuming you swim for a college? Could you tell me some more about the program and the school itself? Sorry if I'm bothering you!

Hey! You’re not bothering me at all! I swim in Ontario, Canada for the McMaster University swim team. McMaster is ranked top 100 in the world and the swim team has a really successful history. I can give you more information if you come off anon and you can ask more specific questions!

Veganism is not limiting. Meat-eaters think we only eat salads.Take away animal flesh and products, and the only other food you can think of is lettuce. Whose diet is limiting?
