'It looks as if that ‘enemy’ never really went away. '
From swimming with her sisters in Grantham to winning a medal at the Commonwealth Games, Freya Colbert has come a very long way in a very short time – and she’s still got the Olympics in her sights.
Most 15-year-olds would spend their summer on holiday with family, or hanging out with friends, but Freya was selected for European Junior Swimming Championships instead.Since then she has gone from strength to strength, competing at the World Aquatics Championships in 2022, as well as earning multiple European Championship medals in both individual and team events.
Freya recalls that experience as an opportunity for her to experience the truly elite level of global competition. “After the final I saw all these people cheering for us, it was insane and I get emotional just thinking about it. “Expectation from other people has never really bothered me because I expect myself to improve each time.
