Olympic legend Ian Thorpe back in the pool at the Ian Thorpe Aquatic Centre - 3 February 2011
Australia’s most successful Olympian Ian Thorpe announced yesterday he will compete at the trials for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. We were excited to see Thorpey hitting our aquatic centre bright and early this morning for some training laps.
Speaking at a press conference, Ian said: “While there was a time in my life that I thought I would never swim competitively again, things have changed, and I’m very excited to once again be back in the pool.”
See the images in our image gallery.
