Katie Ledecky

For me, a hero is someone who stands out for his bravery and his merit. Someone who is challenging, who shows courage, who go beyond her limits, who overcomes her difficulties and who succeeds at what she undertakes like Katie Ledecky.

 Katie Ledecky is a 22-year-old American professional swimmer. She was born in 1997 in Washington. She's the most exceptional swimmer and record breaker. Indeed, Katie won an Olympic title in 2012 on 800-meter freestyle when she was only 15 years old. Since this year, she has been a five time Olympic champion and fourteen time world champion in the big pool. Moreover, she's the only swimmer in history to have won four individual titles at the same world championships in Kazan in 2015. Currently, Katie holds the 400, 800 and 1500 meter freestyle world record. Katie is very admirable, extraordinary, strong-willed, daring, strong and very courageous to have faced the Olympic games pressure at only 15 years old.

She is the fastest swimmer of all time, she succeeds everything she undertakes. We can admire her for what she is, the human proof of: " The perseverance always ends up paying."
