@sportsscipod Re your ep on growth of women’s rugby. I played for Wales 1998-2000. Although amateur we did get expenses (inc fuel for travel to training). I played at Wasps with several England women who were fully pro thanks to Lottery funding. So not a completely new initiative

@altini_marco Hey Marco - here’s an interesting n=1 for you! On 17th I ran a marathon. The next day my HRV was the highest I’ve ever seen it! Thoughts?

So excited for baby #2 in October! Planning a baby as an athlete is scary and hard. Thankfully @ModernFertility gave us proactive info and support needed to plan our family on our own timeline.

@trisutto @TraceyWickham4 2/2 As an average age-grouper would be interested to know what all these great swimmers have in common from a technique point of view & are there any consistent principles all swimmers can work towards in order to improve their swim?
English

Tracey Wickham is a personal favourite of mine, as she encompasses many of the qualities that are taught as fundamentals, yet there were elements of her stroke that were unique:

@bbculp @witsupcom There was one safety boat. The first turn buoy could easily have been put further out though, or they could have started further down the beach. But I think they expected worse conditions and made the call early
English

@witsupcom Pros should not have a shortened course for those conditions.

A little bike crash tried to sideline Candy from @protriorg #ChallengeDaytona A nasty elbow cut, but no skin off anywhere. Dr said 10 days out of the water, but The Doc had other thoughts. 5 mins, a plastic bag, scissors & tape. Got in, swam 4k good as gold. See you in Daytona

@trisutto @MichaelKlimAus @johnvanwisse17 always cites Katy Ledecky as another swimmer with that type of stroke (and fast cadence)
English

Whilst Popov is still used as the 'perfect stroke' for most triathletes to emulate, it is his training partner Michael Klim who is the poster boy for my squad:

A 4.50 alarm to watch @chrissiesmiles interview on @witsupcom Stef, you are wonderful at getting guests to open up and share new stories/ perspectives. Bravo. Chrissie, you are and always will be my favourite champion

English

@chrissiesmiles I love your humility. It overshadows your athletic prowess
English

Although flattering, I’m not sure that’s true :) I was standing on the shoulders of male & female giants, & many of the peromances since have more than overshadowed mine. That’s the beauty of sport.

Let's not waffle over the best Ironman athlete of all-time. However, @chrissiesmiles stands above all of us.
