Canada's Penny Oleksiak is not your average teenager.
At the tender age of 16, she captured swimming gold in the women's 100 metres freestyle at the 2016 Rio Olympics to finish with four medals -- the best-ever haul by a Canadian at a single Summer Games.
But after melting hearts in Brazil, Oleksiak flopped at last year's world championships, something she's determined to avoid when she makes her Commonwealth Games debut in Gold Coast.
"It was crazy after Rio because there was so much hype around it," Okeksiak said after training for the competition, which begins next week.
"It was pretty hard, everyone was freaking out. Even now it's just different knowing little kids look up to me and want to follow in my footsteps.
"Last year it was more trying to chill out and kind of find my space and get off of 2016."
"But now I watch what I do more and am more conscious of everything that's happening."
