After 20 years of operating a successful international advertising, promotional merchandise, marketing and public relations agency, Louis Tharp needed a change. Determined to better his overall lifestyle, he not only began swimming as part of a comprehensive fitness and health regime, but also changed career paths. Louis Tharp is now a social entrepreneur, coach of a successful tri team, well-decorated swimmer and co-founder of two international organizations that increase the quality of life for persons living with chronic diseases.
When Louis Tharp first began swimming, he struggled with conventional, outdated training methods. Fed up with the lack of performance results, he discovered a new technique that had a successful outcome. In the next ten years, he lost 80 pounds, competed in local, regional and international meets and eventually became a World Master’s medalist.
