What does it take to conquer some of the world's most gruelling open water swims? Join us on Torpedo Swimtalk Podcast as we reconnect with the inspiring Rob Woodhouse, who is just one swim away from completing the Ocean 7 and the Triple Crown. Rob shares the excitement of his preparations for the Manhattan 20 Bridges Swim and discusses his new, high-stakes role as the CEO of Swimming Australia. Nutrition and preparation are crucial for open water swimming, and Rob brings his expert insights to the table. Learn about the strategies that keep him fueled and ready, from testing nutrition plans during rigorous training to the essential role of a professional support team during monumental challenges like the English Channel. We also delve into the mental and physical hurdles faced in some of the most demanding swims, including encounters with marine life and the icy waters of the North Channel.Looking ahead, Rob offers us a glimpse into the future of Australian swimming under his leadership. Discover his ambitious vision for unifying stakeholders and fostering development across all levels of the sport, with the Paris 2024 Olympics and the Brisbane 2032 Games on the horizon.
