In this episode I share with you a swim I got half way through and proclaim to my boat crew “This is the day I learnt to swim for!” Through a series of questions friends have asked me over the years I explore the What, How ,When, Why ,Who, Where, of swimming the length of the beautiful Lake Zurich through my personal experience of my favourite lake swim - My individual MYSWIM.   A YouTube video accompanies this podcast which shows further detail of the swim.  Topics covered: ·      INTRODUCTION to the Lake - geometry, temperatures, water wild life ·      HOW did I prepare for the swim? ·      WHAT was my TRAINING PLAN? ·      WHAT is my recommended Swim and travel KIT LIST and food? ·      WHAT was my Feed Strategy? ·      Travel kit suggestions ·      WHO is the event for? ·      Suggestion for WHERE to stay ·      WHAT happens on RACE DAY Prior to the start ·      The Race Experience ·      My lasting impressions of the swim  ·      Regular Feature: Factitious swim challenge  Links for further information: www.srichinmoyraces.org  With this episode of the podcast there is a unique MYSWIM design that reflects the essence of the LAKE ZURICH swim discussed.
