No Guns if You're In The Olympics

The Aussies were training at the foremost swim training center in the US, arguably the world, founded by Coach George Haines.

If swim practice lagged, he'd come out of his office shooting his starter pistol and cracking his bullwhip that he could, and did, lay around my neck - painlessly. A fine way to make a teenager focus. I swam for George Haines as a high school student.

Don's gun shop is about a mile and a half from the Swim Center.
