“I have so much respect and admiration for Katie Hoff as a person and an athlete. She helped push the progression of women’s swimming and now courageously shares her insights and challenges in and out of the pool in Blueprint. Through it all, Katie’s mettle is gold.” – Michael Phelps
“Blueprint” is a candid account of the extraordinary life and athletic journey of one of America’s greatest athletes and a champion in every way–the remarkable two-time Olympian Katie Hoff.

SO excited to hear Katie’s story! One of the GOAT in our sport, I remember seeing her steal the show at the 2003 US Open and then deliver at 2004 Trials months later.
