The first woman to swim in the Olympics past the age of 40, Dara Torres seems to have been genetically created to do nothing outside the pool. At 5'11 and 150 pounds, she is pure muscle, and her long body covers a lot of ground. Her career spans 24 years as a swimming champion, but she is also a mother, motivational speaker, and TV personality. We can now add author to that list. Torres will be signing her latest book Age Is Just a Number at the Melting Pot in Coral Springs. After enjoying a fabulous fondue dinner, purchase a personalized and autographed copy.
