In a multiple page feature today, the New York Times writes about US Olympian Alex Meyer training for the 2012 Olympic Games. Alex is currently training in Massachusetts with US Open Water Coach Tim Murphy. Alex has been one of the main inspirations for the Work the Dream concept over the past year as he carried Fran’s memory at each race, including his Olympic qualifying 4th place finish in 2011 Open Water World Championships in Jinshan City, China.
Alex, keep Working the Dream! We are cheering for you!
