I am Olivier Poirier-Leroy, founder of YourSwimLog.com and the author of YourSwimBook and Conquer the Pool.
This is my lane in the internet-pool where I get to write about the thing I love most—this sport and how to do it at a high level!
I’ve been swimming since the age of 5 years, and since then I’ve set a NAG record, was a top nationally ranked age grouper, attended several Senior Nationals, qualified for Olympic Trials (2x), and won an OUA Championship swimming for McMaster University.
Swimming has given me a lot over the years, and this website is where I get to share my passion and knowledge for the sport.
My goal with this website is simple—to help you swim like your Speedo is on fire!
See you poolside,
