Founder @ Backstroke.com

Last week was magical ✨ 🚀 I launched my new start-up, Backstroke, with my wife and co-founder, Allyson Talyor, PhD. Bonus: my dad (pictured) and mom (not pictured--sorry, Mom), sister, and so many friends came to support the launch ❤️ 🥇 I got to meet and interview one of my swimming heroes, 8-time Olympic Gold Medalist, Matt Biondi. He blew everyone away. 🔥 I went to USA Swimming Olympic Swim Trials 4 times 🏊♂️ 🌮 And then I drove to Birmingham for a cousin's wedding and got to go to Buc-ee's, Ltd. for the first time with my kids. WORTH THE HYPE, people. Get the breakfast taco. Can I get an amen Eric C. Talyor, CPA??

The swimming was awesome. Our son swam for WTSC and was on the relay team that set two Nat's in one meet with Drew Kibler and two others who went onto chase the rings. He went off to swim D1 and then to corporate life. However, we spent so much time in pools, to see so many Indiana swimmers we know competing...and others we knew from D1 meets was nothing short of amazing. Made for heartfelt joy for so many deserving athletes and deep anguish for the some swimmers we watched growing up swimming with our son like Michael Brinegar. Crushing. Anyway...It was an amazing spectacle, wasn't it?!

So excited for you and Allyson, RJ! You two are amazing! Excited to see how this takes off

Congrats and best of luck to you on your new venture.

Congratulations again cousin. And I need to know how I order my Backstroke T-shirt🫵

Buc-ee's blew my mind on our drive to Florida. Had to grab some swag. Congrats on Backstroke.
