He began attending swimming classes at age five. (quainspiration.se, 30 Sep 2019)

"My parents both swam and thought it was important to learn to swim. In the beginning, it was exciting to get up so early and train before school. But of course, I was very tired and it was dark outside. But my parents were very helpful and got me up. It helped that it has always gone so well which makes it fun."

US swimmer Michael Phelps. (aquainspiration.se, 30 Sep 2019)

"I usually go into my bubble [before a race]. I try to visualise myself swimming the race over and over again, as I want it to look. Then just get in and go." (aquainspiration.se, 30 Sep 2019)

"It may sound a little strange but my best moment at competitions is when you are in the call room, before the race. You are nervous, but everyone is equally nervous. There is a great silence and a feeling that is built up in there. It's both wonderful and scary." (aquainspiration.se, 30 Sep 2019)
