Torpedo Swimtalk Podcast with Julie Boxsell - on the Thrill of Open Water Marathon Swimming

  • Summary

  • Townsville marathon swimmer Julie Boxsell joins us on this episode of Torpedo Swimtalk Podcast to share her deep-seated love for open water swimming and the community it fosters. Julie gives us an insider's look at her disciplined training regimen, including arduous double sessions, all building up to her next swim challenge in Tasmania's Derwent River. She doesn't just swim through stinger-infested waters; Julie swims through life's uncertainties, drawing strength from her unwavering support crew and the connections she's made that transcend the competition itself.

    Julie recounts her Manhattan 20 Bridges marathon – a swim she had to complete twice, back to back, because lightning stopped the first one at the eleventh hour. We discussed the need for mental fortitude and the agility to adapt when something like this happens.

    As we celebrate the vibrant open water events and the camaraderie that defines the swimming community, Julie reflects on the profound reasons that compel swimmers to confront monumental challenges such as the English Channel. Our dialogue journeys through the logistical maze of planning international swims, the strategy of seizing the best time slots, and the dream of creating new swim events on Australian shores.

    Join us to feel the thrill and passion that fuel marathon swimmers like Julie Boxsell.
