Thorpe back training, comeback possible
Ian Thorpe is back training in the pool and has not ruled out a return to competition in time for the London 2012 Olympics.
Dave Flaskas, manager for the 28-year-old five-time Olympic gold medalist, said on Sunday that while "it's a long way from here to London," Thorpe is enjoying swimming again and "never say never."
Flaskas said in order to be eligible for the London Games, Thorpe would have to begin drug-testing in the next six to eight weeks to make him eligible a year out from the Australian trials next February or March.
Thorpe retired in 2006 after setting 13 world records and winning 11 world championship
