Ledecky recently highlighted that the two don't usually enjoy good practice sessions on the same days. Ledecky added that when he struggles, she does well and vice versa.“I would say we very rarely both have a great day on the same day,” Ledecky explained. “So, there can be some days where Bobby’s really hurting and I’m having a great practice – or maybe because he’s hurting, I get that little bit of a motivation boost. And then there are days where he’s killing it and I’m in the back hurting.” (via olympics.com) View this post on Instagram Instagram PostAt the Paris Games, Katie Ledecky won four medals, while Finke clinched two, in the 800m and 1500m freestyle events, respectively.
