Femke

First mistake was letting the only swimmer in our team without a good start, start the race 

 

Not that it would have made a difference, because if Femke doesn't show up, it's not gonna be a medal.

I thought I was going to throw up on that last lap.  The neighbours must think I'm crazy, haha.

First women's swimming medal for Canada since 1996.  First time Canada gets a medal on the first day since 2004.  

 

EDIT: 1996, not 1992
