Simpson to swim rather than sing at the Commonwealth Games
ADELAIDE, Australia — Cody Simpson was part of the entertainment lineup in the buildup for the last Commonwealth Games. “If you told me two years ago I would be here this soon, I wouldn’t believe you,” Simpson said of his selection. tell you that you’re dreaming.” He said making his first senior Australian squad was “a testament to the last two years” of heavy training when he often asked himself if he was “in over my head or dreaming too big.” The Commonwealth Games, a multi-sports event that started as the British Empire Games in 1930 and is staged every four yeas, starts July 28 in Birmingham, England. And you get used to being able to get up and do it and be able to remain calm and steadfast under certain conditions.” The Australian trials concluded late Sunday in Adelaide with Olympic gold medalist Ariarne Titmus breaking the women’s 400-meter freestyle world record. Titmus and fellow Olympic gold medalists Zac Stubblety-Cook, Kaylee McKeown and Kyle Chalmers are all on Australia’s team for the Commonwealth Games.
