Hello swimming enthusiasts! My name is Betsey, and I am the creator of the Women in Swimming blog. I have been swimming competitively since I was seven years old, and it is something that I really enjoy. One of the reasons that I love swimming is because women get just as much attention as men. My goal with this blog is to bring to light incredible female swimmers of the past, present, and future, who are creating a platform (no pun intended) for women in sports. Every few weeks, I will be highlighting one of these females, and I encourage you to leave your comments about women in swimming! I am really excited about beginning my Women in Swimming blog, and I hope you are too. Stay tuned for more posts!
