I posted a few days ago about the surprising swimming world record set by a friend and former Stanford student and swimmer, Peter Marshall. Since then, he’s gone on to even outdo himself. It’s pretty amazing since he had taken a lot of time off before the meets thinking that this was going to be the end for him. Seems like he should reconsider!
