Welcome to episode seventy-three of the Low Tide Boyz - A Swimrun Podcast!This week we have Jennifer Devers and Bridgit Phillips on the show. They are a Swimrun team out of North Carolina with one of the best team names that we’ve seen in a while: Team Phyllis Hold My Shower Beer. More on this interview later in the show.Training UpdateWe got redemption on last week’s irony fest and got in our two-hour Swimrun this past Friday. We busted out the tether for the first time of the year and ended our training with a 15’ pier jump before our last swim. We even did a bonus Swimrun practice on Tuesday! Fun times!ShoutoutsWe have two shout outs this week. First shoutout is to our buddy Alex Sigal. He’s not a Swimrunner yet but he shared a ton of intel with us for a potential Swimrun adventure while on a trail run on Angel Island in the San Francisco Bay this past weekend. It looks pretty promising and we’ll be going out there in a few weeks to do some more recon. Good looking out Alex!Our second shoutout goes out to Oskar. His instagram handle is @enidiottvaklassiker (One idiot doing two Swedish Classics) and he sent us a DM thanking us for our ear plug recommendations. It worked out great for him and solved a major problem for him and his partner. So happy we could help!Feats of EnduranceThis week’s winner is Will Ramsey. We know that we make fun of triathlon a fair bit in our memes but races are happening and it’s great to see our Strava Club members out there doing stuff. Will raced Ironman 70.3 Chattanooga over the weekend and his swim split was very spicy! Strong work buddy!Make sure to join the LTBz Strava Club and get inspired by your fellow Swimrunners as they train all over the world.This Week in Swimrun (Powered by Raceid.com)Lots of Swimrun news to share this week.The Bali Swim Trail Challenge took place over the weekend and it looked like a fantastic event.
