In this episode Duncan & Jim were lucky to get this interview with Caitlin.
Caitlin is a shy athlete but we got to hear about some of her amazing swims and her intentions for the future.
Caitlin swam the Cook straight when she was 12 years old and went on to complete the New Zealand triple crown.
Since then she has successfully completed another 4 of the Oceans 7's swim, with just 2 to go.
She also did a double Taupo crossing (80km) as covid interupted her ocean 7's plan.
But we also heard about other aspects of her swimming, how she feels about sharks & other critters and the occasional tears on a swim.
We had a wonderful time talking to Caitlin, I hope you enjoy this episode too.
