Description

I was delighted to welcome to the podcast LA Olympic Bronze Medallist and Sports Manager to the likes of Adam Peatty and his niece Emma McKeon, to name a few, all round nice guy - Rob Woodhouse.Hailing from Melbourne, Australia and now based in Glasgow, Scotland, we discussed Rob's swimming journey from early days in a small 4 lane indoor 25m pool in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, to the heights of a bronze medal in the 400 IM at the '84 LA Games and now to his work as a Sports Manager at TLA and his commentary work at world swim meets. His journey took him through the Australian Institute of Sport in its heyday, and we chatted about the infamous training sets of those early 80's. Swimming has been Rob's life, first as someone who reached great heights in his career, to now helping today's athletes with their own swimming journeys.  If you are a swim geek like me, you will love this pod chat down memory lane.Connect with Rob:LinkedIn: Rob WoodhouseConnect with Torpedo Swimtalk via:https://www.torpedoswimtalk.com/Enter the Torpedo Swimtalk Masters Swim Meet here:https://vmeetswim.com/

Some are Olympians, and are competing well into their late 20's and beyond, conquering feats other swimmers are in awe of. Others have unfinished business from their youth, rediscovering their love of swimming and taking their accomplishments to new heights. Who are these superstars? Why do they swim? How do they continue to perform at such high levels. We discover the answers to these and many more questions, as we chat to each of our very special guests. So settle down with a cuppa, and listen to your weekly dose of all things Masters Swimming.
