By Braden Keith on SwimSwam Dutch swimmer Sharon van Rouwendaal has dedicated her Olympic gold medal in the 10km open water marathon swim to her dog Rio, a Pomeranian who died in May. “I didn’t care about swimming for three weeks, he was my little baby,” she said after winning gold on Thursday morning in a thrilling finish that saw her overtake her training partner, Australian Moesha Johnson, in the final lap to grab a win. After emerging from the River Seine, she pointed at a tattoo of Rio’s paw print on her wrist and kissed it. “He needed a little operation for his lungs so I gave it to him in the hope we could live in the Netherlands after the Olympics together in my house with a garden.
