This episode of In At The Deep End is sponsored by Brulo Beer.Mermaid. Adventurer. Swim coach.Lindsey Cole has cycled across continents, walked a thousand miles along the rabbit-proof fence in Australia and swum the length of the Thames in a mermaid tail to campaign against plastic pollution. Somewhere on the way she rescued a drowning cow and ended up on page three of The Sun. It sounds made up. It isn’t.That Thames swim led Lindsey somewhere she never planned. Strangers began messaging with offers of a warm bed and a favourite swim spot, and Lindsey followed the invitations on a six-month journey around Britain and Ireland. Her new book, Swimming with Strangers, tells that story. In this episode she talks to Salim about the people she met, what the water strips away and why the wild swimming community may be one of the best things going.Together, Salim and Lindsey explore:How a Saturday coaching job at 14 grew into a lifelong love of teaching swimmingWhy swimming as a mermaid is far harder than it looks, and what it takes to swim a whole river in a monofinThe unlikely chain of events that took Lindsey from the rabbit-proof fence to a plastic-filled sea in Bali and then to the ThamesHow a cold-water swim community can turn strangers into friends, and how the invitations she received shaped her open water journey around Britain and IrelandWhat the swimming world strips away, and why shared water can bring together people who might never otherwise talkWhy sewage in our rivers may be one issue everyone can agree onLindsey’s coaching approach, from pushing off the wall like a rocket to bringing play into your strokeTaking the unscripted route through life, from Ironman triathlons to the Edinburgh FringeUseful LinksLindsey’s website: lindseycole.co.ukFollow Lindsey on Instagram: @stompycolePre-order Swimming with Strangers: Bookshop.orgSwimming venues and communities mentioned: Tooting Bec Lido, Clevedon Lake, the Outdoor Swimming SocietyBook launch talk and signing with Lindsey and Salim: Oakash Lake, Sunday 8 November, around 1pmThanks to this episode's sponsor, Brulo BeerFind out more about Brulo Beer at brulobeer.com.Listeners can get an exclusive 30% off their first order + free delivery with the code: DEEP30A word from Brulo Beer: Alcohol free beer has a reputation.
