How do you become a professional track and field athlete?

Answer 1

Make your national olympic cut times. Usually starting with making the national team. That itself takes many years of practice. You have to make a very fast Olympic Trial Cut, which only about 100 swimmers make in each event. Then to make the olympic team you have to place in the top two in the event.

To be a good swimmer, you must have much patience and lots of practice. You must work on your endurance and speed. You also need to decide whether you like sprinting or long distance swimming. Also, join camps or clubs. Swimming also requires health, so eat well and exercise. Remember: for every 1 week you take off from swimming, it takes 2 more to regain the level you left off from.
