Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympic athlete of all time, has revealed what no sports fan wants to hear – that Olympic swimmers occasionally relieve themselves in the pool.
到目前为止个人获得金牌总数最多的奥运游泳选手迈克尔·菲尔普斯揭露了任何体育迷都不愿听闻的事实——奥运游泳选手们偶尔会在泳池内解手。
The US swimmer said: “I think everybody pees in the pool. It’s kind of a normal thing to do for swimmers. When we’re in the water for two hours, we don’t really get out to pee.
这位美国游泳运动员说：“我想每个人都会在泳池里小便。这对游泳运动员来说很正常。当我们在水里一待两个小时的时候，我们还真不会到泳池外去解手。”
“Chlorine kills it so it’s not bad.”
“泳池的水是经过氯消毒的，所以也没那么糟糕。”
Phelps was responding to comments made by fellow swimmer Ryan Lochte, who caused controversy recently when he reportedly said that he has on occasion relieved himself while in the pool.

"I think there's just something about getting into chlorine water that you just automatically go," he added.
他补充道：“我觉得进入氯水之后，你就不自觉地想要在水里小便。”
When asked if he did that during the London Olympics, he said: "Not during the races, but I sure did before in warm-up."
