The second guest I had on the podcast was Mike Peterson, Head Coach of the Ames Cyclone Aquatics Club (ACAC) in Ames, IA. This was my first visit back to ACAC, where I actually started my full-time coaching career, and I was really impressed with how the club has grown and changed since my time there.
Mike was a great host, showing me around and exchanging tons of ideas on training and life teaching, and there’s plenty of that on the interview! As it happens with many coaches, Mike is full of ideas about devices and gadgets to help his swimmers’ progress. He’s taken the extra step in developing those, and also started a company together with a former colleague, and we also cover that.
This was another great interview – really only thanks to the guest! – that I’m happy to put out for the world to hear. It’s available on iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and directly with the player below.
