What does it take to become a dual Commonwealth Games representative, Iron Man, and Masters WR Holder? Join us on Torpedo Swimtalk Podcast as we chat with Brent Foster, a true champion in the world of swimming and triathlon, who shares his incredible journey and insights on pushing his limits in the sport. From training at the Australian Institute of Sport to overcoming injuries and setbacks, Brent's story is one of grit, determination, and passion.
As we explore Brent's Masters Swimming career, we discuss the medley program he participated in at the Institute, his strongest event, and how that helped him onto two Commonwealth Games Teams.

Balancing work, life, and training is no easy feat, but Brent offers his top tips for incorporating the 400 IM into your program and training for the Ironman.
