An Olympic Swimmer Who Nearly Drowned You may have never heard of my favourite athlete, Eric Moussambani, the first Olympic swimmer from Equatorial Guinea. Eric swam in the 100-metre freestyle at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. However, he had just begun swimming only six months before the games! The only swimming pool for him was a hotel pool about 13 metres long, and even then he could only use it for an hour every morning. In fact, the first time he ever saw an Olympic-sized 50-metre swimming pool was at the Olympics. During his race, he swam well for the first 50 metres, but the last 15 metres of the race were especially difficult for him. In fact, it looked like he was going to drown! But he tried hard to finish the race and won loud cheers from the crowd. Though Eric Moussambani is not an Olympic medal winner, he is still my favourite athlete. He never gave up no matter how hard it was. With hard work and practice, Eric later became quite fast at the 100 metres. His time for the 100-metre event improved from 1 minute 52 seconds, his Olympic record, to under 57 seconds!
