Olympian, World Record holder, and National Team member Jessica Hardy<\/strong> gets swimcere today! Spin and Jess discuss her early days as a SoCal swimmer and water polo player, the experience of making the 2008 Olympic team followed by the heartbreak of what followed – including the subsequent fight to prove her innocence, what it means to her to finally be an Olympian, and her goals for 2016 and beyond. Also discussed is Hardy’s new book: “Swimming Toward The Gold Lining: How Jessica Hardy Turned Her Wounds Into Wisdom” (a fascinating read). Thanks so much for tuning back in, you guys. ONE LOVE.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Swimcerely with Spindrift<\/strong> is a podcast that showcases conversations with high school, collegiate, pro, and Olympic swimmers\u2019 about their likes, dislikes, career, goals, and more. Each episode centers on a different swimmer, giving a behind-the-scenes look at what makes these athletes tick and, in some cases, what separates them as some of the best swimmers in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy favorite podcasts are ones that feature actors, writers, and comedians speaking not just about their craft but about their favorite restaurants, TV shows, telling funny stories, etc. With 2016 fast approaching, I wanted to try to bring that sort of format to swimming, so that fans can have a new type of unfiltered access to their favorite swimmers. The show is meant to be off-the-cuff, goofy, and a little different. Hopefully people will enjoy!\u201d \u2013 Spindrift Beck<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
