While the internet was in shambles, Dayo used that time to focus on himself. With little time left, Coach Richard was drilling him hard on the 100 meters.
"Alright, it's time to see if you're worth entering other competitions," Richard said as he tapped Dayo's shoulder and gave him a gentle push toward the starting block.
Dayo smiled, shook his head lightly, then nodded.
"On your mark."
"SET!"
"GO!" Richard shouted, blowing the whistle.
The moment the whistle sounded, Dayo dived into the water immediately.
Richard nodded, impressed. Dayo's reaction time had improved. Now it was time to see if he truly had the potential for other events.
Dayo, as usual, emptied his mind. He moved like he belonged to the water. His strokes were fluid — nothing like the slow swimmer he used to be. He had gone from slow and steady… to an outright tsunami.
