At just 21, with a Paralympic gold medal and world records to her name, Katja Dedekind is on the path to leaving a legacy in Australian swimming.
She laughed when considering that prospect.
“I don’t think about myself having a legacy,” Dedekind said.
“In all honesty, I’m quite a humble person in that I don’t talk about myself and my achievements very much.
“But what I do talk about is my struggle with endometriosis. Because it annoys me and I’m annoyed other people are going through the same thing.”
