Oxygenaddict Triathlon Podcast "I completed IRONMAN UK but was too scared to swim in a pool 6 months earlier!" | Ep 458
This week we’re joined by Peter Connolly, who achieved a lifelong goal when he completed IRONMAN UK this year.
This episode will really help anyone who suffers from swim anxiety, as Pete talks about the strategies he developed with Coach Chris to help move him from someone who was too anxious to even get into the swimming pool at the start of the year, to someone who confidently completed the swim in open water at Ironman UK, despite the difficult weather conditions on the day making the swim extremely difficult.
Oh, and Pete qualified for the IRONMAN World Champs in Nice as a result!
