This podcast chats to adult Masters Swimmers from around the world, both pool and open water champions. 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.
