AMA #1 with Tower 26 Coaches Megan and Jim

<p>Welcome to episode forty-two of the <a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/">Low Tide Boyz - A Swimrun Podcast!</a></p><p>This week we have our first AMA-style episode with <a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/podcast/gerry-rodrigues-amp-emma-kate-lidbury">Tower 26</a> coaches Megan Melgaard and Jim Lubinski. We were lucky to get these super experienced coaches on the show and it was a lot of fun. We asked them a bunch of listener questions about open water swimming and, it’s safe to say, that we learned a ton and think that you will as well. More on the interview later in the show.  </p><p><strong>Training Update</strong></p><p>We had a good week of training with a big 3-hour Swimrun practice to dial everything in for <a href="https://www.odysseyswimrun.com/austin">Ödyssey Swimrun Austin</a> on November 8th. It’s almost taper time so please pray for our wives as we will surely get moody on race week. Racing Odyssey Swimrun Austin?

He’s a member of our <a href="https://www.strava.com/clubs/lowtideboyz">Strava Club</a> and participated in <a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/podcast/odyssey-swimrun-austin-course-preview">Ödyssey Swimrun’s Austin course preview</a> training day and was essentially our man on the ground. He gave the club a ton of great intel on the course and we really appreciate him taking the time to share the knowledge. If that wasn’t enough, we got the idea on Sunday night to try to get Adrian on the show to do an Addendum for our <a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/podcast/odyssey-swimrun-austin-course-preview">Austin Course Preview</a> episode and he was down to help us with that. That <a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/podcast/odyssey-swimrun-austin-course-preview">Addendum</a> bonus episode is out now! Major tip of the hat to Adrian.</p><p><strong>Thi
