February, 2016. I am jumping up and down and swinging my arms behind the starting blocks, preparing to swim my last collegiate championship race ever: 200 Breaststroke. In my head I’m saying, “Let’s go, Maddy. Give it everything you’ve got. This one’s for you. This is the last time you will ever swim as fast as you can!” I was ready.

Yesterday, we posted the gifts that we won't be giving to the men of Team Minnesota. Here are the gifts we won't we be giving to the Team Minnesota women:
-
GABY BUNTEN – After looking at the “Likes” on Gaby's FB page, we want to give her tickets to a Drake concert and a European shopping spree with Kendall Jenner.
-
KORTNEY HAAG – We can't really give gifts, we can only reveal what we'd like to give. For Kort, we'd like for time to slow down so her kids don't grow up too fast. We'd like to postpone the onset of Empty Nest Syndrome as long as possible....
