In this episode of Swimming the Strait, I talk with Corrina Connor, marathon swimmer, librarian, and cellist.
We pick up after her first attempt to swim the Cook Strait. She opens up about what came next, what it took mentally, emotionally, and physically to return to the water after falling short.
We talk about resilience, pacing, mindset, and what it really means to try again on your own terms.
This is a story about endurance, but not just in the ocean.
