What would happen if you dropped everything, quit your day job, and trained like an elite swimmer for an entire year? Adam Wilkie is about to find out.
In this incredibly special episode of the podcast, we sit down with Adam Wilkie, son of the late, great British swimming legend David Wilkie. To mark the 50th anniversary of his dad's historic 1976 Montreal Olympic Gold medal, Adam has set himself a mammoth, year-long challenge: to train full-time and get as close as humanly possible to his dad's legendary 200m Breaststroke World Record time of 2:15.11.
We dive into Adam's motivations for this journey—using the pool to navigate his grief, retracing his father's global footsteps, and learning what it truly takes to be an elite athlete. With coaching from Lisa Bates at Chelsea Westminster and check-ins with Aquatics GB, Adam is throwing everything he has at this goal leading up to the 2027 British Championships.
Alongside the swimming, Adam is aiming to raise £215,000 for SportsAid—a charity that helped fund his dad’s career as their first-ever grant recipient.

Summer McIntosh has done the unthinkable at the Canadian Trials, taking down the longest-standing, hardest women's world record left on the books. Swimming a monumental 2:01.65 in the 200m Butterfly, she has officially erased Liu Zige’s 17-year-old super-suit record.
In this episode, we are diving deep into the technique and race analysis to figure out exactly how she pulled this off. We break down the splits, comparing this historic swim side-by-side with her previous personal best (2:01.99 from World Championships) and the old super-suit mark. We explore how Bob Bowman's coaching influenced her pacing, specifically focusing on that crucial middle 100m where she truly separated herself from history.
Plus, with this "unbreakable" record now gone, we debate which world records are officially the hardest left to beat in the sport. Is it the Men's 200m Free, the 800m Free, or Adam Peaty's 100m Breaststroke? Let us know what you think in the comments!
