Where we hear the human side of the super human feats of endurance swimmers, and those who support them.
Marathon Swim Stories is a place for like minded limit pushers to connect. If you can’t make the weekly calls, watch on YouTube (CC), or subscribe to the podcast and take it with you. Whether you’re a seasoned marathon swimmer, aspiring marathon swimmer, or just intrigued, we’re all in a marathon pandemic now! Perhaps something can be learned from these remarkable endurance athletes. If the stories are too long, check out Marathon Swim Shorts!
When COVID-19 closed down pools and the open water swim season ceased, marathon swimmers near and far started to gather online. Just a few of us at first, lamenting the shut down, finding solace in each others company. Then we started hosting guests… we talk about swims past, swims lost, and how individuals are dealing with the pandemic. Then more and more familiar faces joined. More guests shared their stories and we started to learn more about each than we ever have time for when we gather at the waters edge.
Join us on Tuesday mornings at 5:30 AM Pacfic: https://www.intrepidwater.com/event/mss
