In this episode Duncan & Jim talk to Brent Bythell.
Brent is a disbled swimmer from the top of the south island of New Zealand. We first met Brent at the St Bathans openwater ice swimming event in 2023, and later at Alexandra ice pool champs in 2024.
We talk to him about why he started cold water immersion and the road to ice swimming. (he hasn't had a hot shower in 8 years!).
But that's not all. Brent also is a world record holder and has a place in the Guinness book of world records for doing freedive swims of 62m, with no fins and no kicking. Very impressive.
