    In this episode, I am chatting with Phil Rush, who has the fastest double and triple crossing of the English Channel. In this episode, we chat about a number of things including how can you get better at adapting to the cold, the type of training that you need to be doing if you are looking to do a marathon swimming, what are the important factors when you are thinking of the training that you are doing. Is it the distance that you are doing? Is it the speed? Feeding? What are some aspects of the training? If you are into open water swimming, cold water swimming, or looking to increase the distance that you are doing, then this a podcast for you.

    Americans are flocking to the beach to cool off as an unprecedented heat wave sweeps the nation. But beware: sharks are out in droves. Beachgoers in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, got quite the scare when a shark took down a seal close to shore. Near San Francisco, a 35-year-old man was attacked by a great white shark before managing to swim to shore with a bitten leg. People aren’t the only species looking to cool off – a family of bears was spotted taking a dip in Lake Tahoe right next to some humans.
