SK195 James Magnussen

Ever wonder how fast someone could swim if some of the rules were lifted?

Nike believed someone could run a marathon under 2 hours, which Eliud Kipchoge achieved with the help of pacers, drafting, and carbon plated shoes. A similar event took place in triathlon, with Olympic Champion Kristiaan Blumenfelt completing an Iron-distance triathlon in under 7 hours.

In this episode, 2x 100 freestyle Swimming World Champion James Magnussen joins us to share his current pursuit - breaking the unofficial WR in the 50 freestyle in the Enhanced Games.

This time, a team of experts is testing the limits of human potential yet again, but with one additional restriction lifted, the permitted use of substances that are banned for use in Olympic and elite International competitions.

While the permitted use of PEDs makes the Enhanced Games quite controversial, James Magnussen explains how the team behind the Enhanced Games and their expert medical staff are prioritizing athlete health and safety well above and beyond anything he experienced during his career as the best in the world competing for a storied and well-funded swimming nation in Australia.
