	Janet Evans: Janet (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Janet was the most important person in my life for five years.
		Janet taught me a lot about what's really important in life: the people who are close to me, enjoying life, and not taking things too seriously (though she was quite guilty of this at times).
		In the end, she ended up kicking some major butt in Psychology (departmental awards and such) and continuing on toward a Masters or Ph.D. at the University of Rhode Island, where she currently is with her boyfriend Sean.

		Even at 5 feet 4 inches and 99 pounds during her peak years, Janet Evans turned her "windmill-in-a-hurricane" stroke into the machine that won one silver and four Olympic gold medals, set seven world records and qualified for three successive Olympic teams.
		During her career, Janet set each of these records a second time and a third time for the 800m.
		It was her trademark "bursts of speed," a rapid and timely increase in stroke rate towards the end of each race, that boosted her to defeat competitors sometimes 60 pounds stronger and with longer arms and bodies.

		Janet's example is meant for seasoned swimmers who can maintain a base interval of 1:15 per 100m freestyle.
		You may not have as much rest as you did after the 500, but keep in mind that you are dropping the distance you are swimming so your interval, though consistent in base, will seem shorter.
