Special Olympics Athlete
MY PERFECT DAY
Golf lesson with a legend Indoor skydiving Movie premiere Rock 'n' rolling with the King
It's hard not to be impressed with 38-year-old Chris Ringot. The Missouri resident, who has Down syndrome, has been competing in Special Olympics games since he was 10. He's tried many Special Olympics sports-everything from golf to bowling to bocce to softball to basketball-but swimming is his passion. "The first time he got in the pool it was like, Oh my gosh, he has a real, natural gift," says his sister, Carrie Bartlow. Chris remembers that too. "After that, it just took off," he says.
From that moment on, swimming was a central part of his life.
