Port to Pub Director - Ceinwen Roberts


Listen Later

Ceinwen is the Co-Founder & Director of the annual Port to Pub event in March. Which takes off from Leighton Beach & finishes on Rottnest Island. There are team races, duos, solos & the ultra marathon race for the real crazy people which is 25km! Ceinwen talks us through some stories, stresses & rewards of running such a large scale (logistical nightmare) event in open water. 

We also discuss where Ceinwen's love of swimming came from, her coaching career & her own impressive open water achievements. Crossing the English Channel in 14 degree water, doing the Rotto swim 3 times - literally getting to shore then turning back & to do it another two times that day! Plus we unpack much more of Ceinwen's story.
