Our guest this week is Karin Johansson -- and by the time you hear this episode she will have swam 6.5 kilometres down the Bosphorus Strait as part of Istanbul's annual cross-continental swimming race.  The Bosphorus has been treasured for centuries, as part of the crucial connection between the Black Sea with the Mediterranean, and the natural border dividing Istanbul between Asia and Europe.  For those of you who are keen to swim the race too, Karin has some pro tips for training and strategy. For the rest of us, just sit back and enjoy this episode. You can also follow us on Instagram and Facebook @TheTurkishBreakfastClub
