Theme of Whale Talk

   Theme of Whale Talk: "To achieve one's goals, one must overcome obstacles, work hard, and stay focused on the goal in order to succeed."

   This is the perfect theme of Whale Talk because some of the members of the swim team had to overcome personal obstacles in order to fulfill their goal of attaining the varsity jacket. Chris Coughlin had to overcome his mental disorder so he stood up to bullies in order to concentrate and win swimming races. Mott had to overcome his problem of not knowing how to swim with one leg by learning how to swim with one leg. Simon DeLong had to overcome his problem of weighing 287 pounds by rigorously working out so he could swim faster which resulted in winning swimming races. All of the swim team members worked really hard and overcame their obstacles so they fulfilled their goal of attaining a varsity letter jacket.
