Description
The Sports Book Podcast is back for 2017. And we kick off with a great title from ALEX HEMINSLEY. She's written in the past about running in "Running Like A Girl" which ended with her taking part in several marathons around the world. She's now switched her attention to swimming - and in particular open-water swimming - in LEAP IN. We talk about how to master something as everyday as breathing, the very real dangers faced when you swim in open water and the mental benefits to this activity.
