Show Notes
In this episode, we focus on the impact that our coaches had on our lives. Which coaches taught us lessons that still impact us today - 15+ years later? More importantly, why do their lessons stick with us?
We also talk about the power of swimming as a form of meditation. Something we didn't realize until we reflected deeply on our swimming careers.
Kyle also tells some funny stories about rooting against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving and turning one of the swimmers he coached into a courier that kept him appraised of the scores in critical 2012 Giants playoff games.
Enjoy!
