Hasko Swims With One Working Limb

January 12, 2014 By Tinker Leave a Comment

Open water swimming is adventurous at the best of times. Imagine, then, competing in next month's Cole Classic with only one fully working limb. Kim Hasko, who has limited use of her arms and one functioning leg, will brave the two-kilometre ocean swim next month for … [Read more...]

I used to panic in the water and didn’t enjoy the swim leg of triathlons... Now I am calm and relaxed!!!
“Just wanted to say huge thank you. I found your clinic both informative and very valuable. I used to panic in the water and really didn't enjoy my swim during my triathlons. However just having the knowledge and knowing what to do if I got in an uncomfortable position made it very calming and allowed me to relax when swimming. Having the opportunity to practise was awesome. I enjoyed it so much that today I went for an early morning ocean swim with my husband. Thank you again.”
Marie Wyche, Western Australia
