The Jack of Hearts coordinate
Janet Evans was born August 28 (1971-08-28). Month 8 and day 28 give solar value 11, which is the Jack of Hearts (The Romantic Messenger). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1971 is unused. The Jack of Hearts does not predict Olympic results and is not a verdict on Janet Evans for United States. Quoted system copy for the Jack of Hearts, not a biography of Janet Evans: You bring a fresh read on love without leaving the room when it gets ordinary. You bring fresh perspective, inspiration, and youthful possibility to love. You see what a relationship could become and carry the spark that reawakens feeling. At your best, you innovate connection with genuine authenticity.
Janet Evans in the public record
Evans was a world champion and world record-holder, and won a total of four gold medals in the 400 and 800-meter freestyle events at the 1988 and the 1992 Olympics. In the late 1980s Evans was the first woman to hold three world records simultaneously in the 400, 800, and 1500-meter freestyle and was the first American woman to win four individual Olympic gold medals in swimming. Born in Fullerton, California, Evans grew up in neighboring Placentia, where she started swimming competitively by the age of 5. By the age of 11, she was setting national age group records in distance events. She swam as a teenager for Fullerton Aquatics Sports Team (FAST Swimming) where her most influential coach in the mid-1980's was Bud McAllister. In 1987, at age 15, Evans broke the world records in the 400-meter, 800-meter, and 1,500-meter freestyle distances. She graduated from El Dorado High School, and when not competing or representing FAST, she swam meets and trained with El Dorado High, where she was coached by Tom Milich, a 1987 California Swimming Coach of the Year, and an American Swimming Coaches Association (ASCA) Distinguished Coach of the Year. Evans attended Stanford University, where she swam for the Stanford Cardinal swimming and diving team from 1989 to 1991 under Stanford's Hall of Fame Women's Head Coach Richard Quick.
