Outside the Lanes

Rebecca Mann

A Pro Swimmer’s Story of Resilience, Reinvention, and Redefining Success

Becca Mann was born to swim. With a fierce determination and a passion for the water, she chased her dreams from the chlorine-soaked pools of her hometown to the elite ranks of the USA National Team. But after sacrificing her life to the sport for decades, Becca’s dreams came crashing down when she narrowly missed the Olympics three times.

As Becca navigates OCD, injury, and the nagging question of “is it all worth it?” she discovers that true success isn’t measured by the medals around her neck, but by the strength of her spirit and the depth of her resilience.

In Outside the Lanes, Becca shares the highs and lows of her swimming career with unflinching honesty and humor. Becca’s story is a splash-of-cold-water wake-up call for anyone who’s ever felt lost in the pursuit of perfection or dared to swim outside the lanes.

Becca Mann is a writer and athlete who graduated from USC with a BFA in Writing for Screen and Television. She previously worked on The Bondsman and The Morning Show, among other credits. Becca balances her storytelling passion with her other love: swimming. A member of the USA Swimming National Team from 2012 to 2021, she was the world’s eighth fastest swimmer in the 800 meter freestyle, represented Team USA at four World Championships, and is the only person to have consecutively swum the 40-mile Maui Nui Tri-Channel Crossing.

@becca__mann www.becca-mann.com

“This beautifully portrays all the strife and beauty that goes into chasing your dreams – achieving some and falling short of others. Becca’s ability to find peace in the journey even when it looks differently than envisioned is something everyone can learn from.”

Katie Zaferes, two-time Olympic medalist
