Ms. Namita Nayyar: It is known that you had fought back in competitions with sheer determination against all odds and returned to win. How you were able to overcome mental block when your are trailing and then reversed the final outcome of the race in your favor and what advice you can give to fellow swimmer person in a similar situation?
Ms. Brittany Elmslie: Over the years I have grown up both obviously physically but also mentally. I have developed the skill of focusing on my own race, you can’t control the outcome of anyone else’s race but your own. I use this self focus skill daily during training and life as sometimes it is very easy to get caught up in worrying about what other people are doing and saying.
