- This episode features our first international athlete, Summer McIntosh. Summer is a 2021 Tokyo Olympian, a 4x world champion and world record holder in the 400 IM. Summer reflects on her family's rich sporting heritage. She shares anecdotes of her sister's success in figure skating and her mom's Olympic triumphs in swimming, particularly in the 200 fly. She credits her family's support and encouragement as the driving force behind her own achievements.
Transitioning from family legacy to personal balance, Summer discusses the art of managing her life both in and out of the pool. At just 17 years old, she juggles intense training sessions with the desire to experience a normal teenage life. She talks about finding harmony between her dedication to her sport and her need for downtime and social interaction.
Recalling her debut at the Olympics at the young age of 14, Summer expresses her immense pride in representing Team Canada and racing with the likes of Katie Ledecky and Ariarne Titmus. She shares the exhilaration of competing at the highest level and the honor of wearing her country's colors on the global stage for the very first time.
Summer's genuine passion for the sport shines through. She describes the challenge and physical pain of training for various disciplines and reveals her favorite event to prepare for-the 400 IM, where she feels most in her element. She speaks candidly about the trust and confidence she has developed in her coaches, allowing for open and effective communication. Through their guidance and support, she has grown both as an athlete and as an individual.
The episode concludes with a glimpse of Summer's unwavering determination and boundless potential. As she looks ahead to the Olympics this Summer, she remains grounded in her roots, fueled by the legacy of those who came before her and inspired by the promise of what lies ahead.

Amazing talented swimmer, beautiful, humble, really nice person! Let´s go McIntosh
Summer is charming, stubborn in training, fun, an exceptional athlete, a wonderful person! She is going to make waves in the pool and the crowd in Paris this summer!
Summer is simply the most engaging young athlete, but beware, because she is a shark in the water and is taking no prisoners in Paris. 🇨🇦💪
Summer is a perfectionist for detail. Even the background of her video call is perfectly symmetrical.
Wow..Summer finds a way to be positive in her language, her actions, and her experiences..an incredible skill, and one so rare!
I LOVE SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she's so cool!
So poised, thoughtful, and well spoken at her age......swimming prowess aside......its remarkable. Hope she does great things this summer in Paris!
Thank you so much for focusing on who summer is as a person instead of just her races, medals, etc!
That is certainly our goal! Thank you!
What a great interview! I smiled the whole time and loved how you both kept it relaxing and fun. Great questions and Summer looked like she was totally relaxed the whole time. Thanks again and looking forward to seeing more podcasts.
Yall have the best questions for these athletes. I hope you and Missy continue to do this. I would love to see some top level age group swimmers and coaches too!
Mcintosh - is good looking and a phenom in the water. Every big name brand should be marketing her and the canadian swimmers especially the ladies....Maggie etc...She should be the face of Nike etc....she has it all.
Excellent interview-well prepared and presented-Bravo to Missy, Katie, and Summer!
A great conversation, share of views and experiences.
Thank you.

i can totally relate with Missy , " I think too much about swimming even out of the pool.." I am so inspired by Summer's talents and habits to cope with her swim practices and hardships. What an amazing talk and episode. I'm so happy to discover this podcast. It truly has a big impact on my love for Swimming.
Wow, Missy, amazingly well-spoken and well-phrased questions! What a natural behind the mic!
