Olympic Champ Discusses High Blood Pressure for Disability Awareness Month

As an Olympic champion swimmer, former Longhorn Garrett Weber-Gale keeps his body in top physical condition. But that doesn't mean he's free from illness. Weber-Gale has high blood pressure. The two-time All-American and Olympic gold medalist will talk about training and competing while managing a chronic illness on Oct. 29 as part of Disability Awareness Month. Weber-Gale's talk is set for 7 pm in the Carpenter-Winkel Centennial Room on the ninth floor of UT's Bellmont Hall. Admission is free and the public is invited.
