In this episode of Marathon Swim Stories, Elaine Howley interviewed me! It's easy to see why I prefer to be the interviewer as listen to myself struggle to find words and endure the play by play of my swimming history, and while the fear of messing up my kids is real, it isn't as paralyzing as it sounds when you listen to this! 

My bio: I grew up frequenting neighborhood pools and found my way to year around swimming before I was 10, but it took another 25 years for me to discover the bliss of swimming in the great outdoors. I quickly caught the marathon swim bug and long to swim further. 

In the last decade I've moved across the country and back again, married, brought two energetic boys into the world and taught them to swim. I can't wait to see if they are limit pushers like myself, and hope that they'll support me in my swims around the world as I encourage them to be kind, loving, curious, and empathetic in everything they endeavor. 

When I'm not seeking the perfect organization method for LEGOs, drawing, coloring, or exploring with my boys, I love to empower others to swim efficiently and push their limits in the water @intrepidwater. http://intrepidwater.com
