Ryan Murphy Talks Mission Pro Swim, World Champ Trials, and National Water Safety Month

In the SwimSwam Podcast dive deeper into the sport you love with insider conversations about swimming. Hosted by Coleman HodgesGarrett McCaffrey, and Gold Medal Mel Stewart, SwimSwam welcomes both the biggest names in swimming that you already know, and rising stars that you need to get to know, as we break down the past, present, and future of aquatic sports.

Six-time Olympic medalist and Speedo Athlete Ryan Murphy headlines USA Swimming’s Mission Pro Swim this weekend.  In this podcast Murphy unpacks his training so far, and he’s more than ready for taper-time ahead of the 2023 U.S. World Championship Trials (aka 2023 Phillips 66′ National Championships). As a pro the season’s been long — 10 months without a full taper. Murphy feels he’s done a lot more base-work than he did ahead of last year’s World Champs where he dropped a 51.97 100m back (silver) and a 1:54.52 200m back  (gold).

May is National Water Safety Month, and as a Speedo, Goldfish, and USA Swimming Foundation Ambassador, the lifesaving skill of swimming is top of mind for Murphy. In this podcast Murphy brings a fresh perspective to the mission, and, based on this conversation, he’ll clearly be an actively engaged advocate for lean-to-swim long after he retires.

Many thanks to our partner Speedo for making this conversation possible.

Murphy seems like a really nice and standup guy. I learn a lot from his interviews.
