Lilly King, Zach Harting and more Olympic swimmers are ready to be honest about some athlete’s peeing habits in the pool
“I’ve probably peed in every single pool I’ve swam in,” Olympic gold medalist Lilly King shared with the Wall Street Journal in an interview published Friday, July 26. “That’s just how it goes.”
She won three additional medals at the 2020 Summer Games in Tokyo before heading to Paris to compete in what is expected to be her last Olympics. For Zach Harting, who competed for Team USA in 2020, he’s been peeing in the pool ever since he competed in Alabama’s high school state championship. Because of his tight-fitting racing suit, a trip to the bathroom minutes before race time would be impossible.
“I always have to pee,” Tokyo Olympian Jake Mitchell told the Wall Street Journal, “because I’m so hydrated.”Many swimmers adhere to an unofficial code of conduct for bathroom breaks in the pool. Whenever it’s possible, athletes try to pee when other people are not around. As four-time Olympic medalist Cullen Jones explained, “You never want to swim through a warm patch.”
