Thoughts on Jenny  (10/14/2004)
 

Jenny Thompson retired from swimming this week in Indianapolis after seventeen years of international competition that included four Olympics, 12 Olympic medals, eight Olympic gold medals, nine World Championship gold medals, and 26 National titles.  At 31, Thompson has become an icon for swimming and one of the most decorated Olympians in history.

 

Thompson has moved on from swimming to focus on her medical career and third year of medical school at Colombia University.  We invite anyone with fond memories of Jenny's career to share them, and please email [email protected] with stories, reflections, or well wishes for her.
