November 30, 2020SSPC: Clyde Lewis on Celebrating Your Personal Victories, Regardless of Place
We sat down with Clyde Lewis, a world champion and commonwealth games champion who is still on the rise for team Australia. Clyde Gives a very interesting perspective, one we don't see too often in swimming: he emphasizes celebrating your personal successes rather than what place you get in a race. Clyde has gotten 3rd at a trials meet, 4th at a world championships, and was 1st seed heading into a worlds final but then didn't medal. And in every case, Clyde celebrated as someone does who won the whole event.

November 29, 2020SSPC: Jordan Wilimovsky on Why Distance Races are Way More Lowkey Than Sprints
We sat down with Jordan Wilimovsky, the laid back distance ace based in California. Jordan talked us through distance training during quarantine and where he's at in the pool right now. He gets into what it's like being at a national team camp with all kinds of athletes and what he learns from sprinters, then compares that to what makes distance races seem more manageable.

We sat down with Liam Tancock, the 2-time world champion and former world record holder in the 50 backstroke. Tancock takes us through his path of unorthodox training with former teammate turned coach James Gibson (now head coach of Energy Standard) as well as his taper meet ritual: a dive-and-glide that told him everything he needed to know about how he was going to swim at that meet.

November 27, 2020SSPC: Maggie Macneil on Converting Short Course Success to a LCM World Title
We sat down with Canadian world champion and NCAA standout for the Michigan Wolverines, Maggie Macneil. Macneil took us through what her quarantine period looked like from training in London (her hometown in Canada) to Toronto to finally making her way back to Ann Arbor.

Macneil walks through managing nerves, observing her role models, and how she converted her short course success into the 50m pool.

November 25, 2020SSPC: Robert Howard Discusses Where Swimming Goes After ISL Season 2
We sat down with Robert Howard to discuss his ISL experience with the DC Trident in the Budapest Bubble. Howard talked through what the ISL is hoping to accomplish, namely bringing a level of excitement and professionalism to swimming. Howard explains this would require change if the ISL were to become a real model for professional swimming, change like moving away from your college coach to train with your team once you've exhausted your NCAA eligibility, much like football or basketball.

Now, who knows if the ISL will be around for another season and if so what it could evolve into, but it is certainly fun to dream of how a truly professional swimming league could change the whole landscape of what a pro swimmer lifestyle looks like.

November 23, 2020SwimSwam Podcast: Andrew Wilson Talks Training, Racing, and Post-Tokyo Plans
We sat down with Andrew Wilson, one of America's top breaststroker's to talk about... well a lot of stuff. Wilson takes us through his COVID training when he swam in an 18-yard pool all the way up to the US Open, where he threw down a couple of races that put everyone on notice.
With Wilson's rapid rise to US National Team member, I forget that he went to Emory and is very intelligent. He reminded me of this when he talks about his plans for this fall: going to Oxford for grad school with the idea of working in F1 in some capacity.

November 19, 2020SSPC: Nyls Korstanje "Whoever does best in the bad circumstances wins"
I sat down with NCAA All-American from NC State Nyls Korstanje, who is currently at home training in the Netherlands. Nyls has gone a few personal bests in his last few competitions and relates to us how his training and racing are going back in the Netherlands. He also tells a story from the European Youth Olympic Festival, a meet that had a big impact on his career.
Nyls said going into the meet, he did not have too many expectations but came out winning the 50 free. He said he was able to do this because the circumstances at the meet were pretty bad, yet in spite of that, Nyls told himself he would still swim his very best. From that, he learned that it's not the best swimmer who always wins, but the best swimmer in the circumstances.
