Gold medalist, and Nulo partner, Regan Smith, known for her astonishing achievements in the pool, has become synonymous with dedication, resilience, and speed. She’s set numerous world records, including in the 50m, 100m, and 200m backstroke, her specialty. She’s won a total of eight Olympic medals, including two gold medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics. She adopted her constant companion, cat Roo, while training for the 2024 Games and credits Roo with being a key member of her support team.
We sat down with Regan to discuss her journey in competitive swimming, Roo’s unconditional love, and why she’s partnered with Nulo.
Tell us about your journey in competitive swimming.
I debuted in the Olympics at 19, while still in college at Stanford, and earned three medals. I moved to Arizona to train with coach Bob Bowman for the Paris Games and continued to compete in World Championships and other international events. I am relentless in my pursuit of excellence and set really high standards for myself. I was really happy to earn five medals in Paris, including two golds! I also love setting World Records!
How has Roo supported your journey?
Roo has been by my side through highs and lows, providing comfort and motivation with her unwavering affection. Ensuring Roo receives the best nutritional care is not just a responsibility I take seriously, but a way for me to reciprocate her loyalty and love.
Why did you partner with Nulo?
It’s really a natural extension of my commitment to performance and health. Just as I prioritize nutrition to maintain my performance levels, I insist on the same quality for Roo, who offers me unconditional love and companionship. Nulo is renowned for its high-quality, nutritious pet food, which aligns perfectly with my lifestyle and values. This partnership highlights the shared commitment I have with Nulo to achieve excellence in every arena—be it in competitive pools or daily cat care.
