Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty, the self-professed “fastest breaststroker in the world” has a VERY thirsty following on Instagram and The Wow Report (me anyway) number among his 300,000+ admiring followers.

And there is SO much to admire, not the least of which are his swimming skills. Admire away.

You’re welcome.

Racing in Luxembourg 🇱🇺 this weekend! 🙌🏼🔥

Some days 50m feels like 200m, 100Kg feels like 150kg, getting up at 6am feels like 3am and some days it’s just not coming together; most people would think they aren’t just performing at their best when in reality it’s most likely just a product of their own hard work. Getting lost in the lows is just as bad as getting lost in the highs

We all choose to have a negative or positive attitude every single day. The people with the positive attitude will always be remembered. 🔘 🔘 🔘 📸 La Presse, Gian Mattia D’Alberto
