Annamay Pierse ..Canada Shouldn't Accept Mediocrity

Some interesting comments from Canadian Swim Star, Annamay Pierse

"I don't think a lot of people in the Swimming Canada world realize how good they can be"

and

"This is because so many people are happy with mediocrity...great you made the team, that is awesome, great you moved up a spot, you didn't do a best time, but great"

"If you do this you get a trophy, if you do this you get a pat on the back, there is never, you need to do better, it has to be better"

"People don't have the mental toughness or the viewpoint that they can push themselves further than they ever thought they could...because everything is celebrated"

(now ....where have you heard these comments before?!!)
