That title is not even a joke. Tammy Van Wisse actually lost 10kgs in 9 hours (and 6 minutes), swimming forty kilometres in the extremely cold water of Loch Ness, while trying not to get eaten by a f**king monster. This was Tammy's second visit to TYP and this chat was a truly fascinating insight into weirdness and wonder of marathon swimming at the highest jevel, from a practical, psychological and physiological perspective. Learn about Tammy's encounters with Tiger and Brown snakes while swimming the 2,438 kilometres of the Murray River (WTF!), the time she almost got eaten by a great white shark (for real), the buoyancy difference between fresh and salt water, the process of 'getting fat' for endurance events and the science behind it, the time her brother John 'kind of' died swimming the English Channel with her (and the Aussie Olympic legend who dived in to save him) and lots more. Enjoy.
