E15 - Andy Donaldson - fastest ever swimmer of the Cook Strait and oceans 7 in under a year

Update: 2024-05-27

Description

In this episode Duncan & Jim talk to Andy Donaldson.
Andy has achieved what no other swimmer has done before, he completed the Oceans 7 swims within a year. And set the world record for crossing the Cook Strait taking only 4hours 33 minutes, that is seriously fast.
But we talked about much more than swimming, his support of mental health charities, whether the aussies understand his scottish accent, and what kind of kilt he has.
Andy was a wonderful person to talk to, and had plenty of great stories to share.
