Abstract
It was forty years ago, in July of 1976, that the dream was born. I sat as a small girl on the floor of our den, bare legs outstretched, fingers clutching the green shag carpet. Canada’s Nancy Garapick was churning her way to Olympic bronze in the 100 metre backstroke in Montreal-a mere three hours away from where I sat.
