In this Gold Medal Minute takeover of the SwimSwam Podcast with three-time 2016 Olympic Champion Ryan Murphy, we cover backstroke, but also hit on some interesting topics you might like. For example:
- Do the Team USA backstroke legends get together and hangout? There are a lot of them, like Murph, Matt Grevers, Aaron Peirsol, Lenny Krayzelburg, Jeff Rouse, David Berkoff, Rick Carey and John Naber. (Who is the coolest and/or weirdest among them?)
- From the famous and storied Bolles School days, who is more fun to hang out with, Joe Schooling or Caeleb Dressel?
- And, does Murph have a future as a Cornhole pro athlete? (He does, but not if the richest man on earth, Jeff Bezos, is delivering the Cornhole kit. This is not a joke. Bezos factors into Murph's answer.)
In this podcast, we don't hold back, and Murph delivers. Murph even provides a backstroke clinic, and we learn what gains he's made while not training in a pool. Is that possible? Yes. It is. Murphy's focused, positive, and he's made use of his COVID-19 shutdown time.
