This is what Wikipedia says about Andy Donaldson: Andrew Donaldson (born 10 February 1991 in Irvine, Scotland) is a Scottish-Australian marathon swimmer, motivational speaker, and mental health advocate. Donaldson is a three-time world record holder,[1] most notably for the fastest time to complete the Oceans Seven marathon swim challenge.[1] On 19 September 2024, he broke the world record for the Manhattan Island Swim, completing the 45.9 km course in 5 hours, 41 minutes and 48 seconds.[2]  He also holds the fastest swim across the Cook Strait - the waters between New Zealand's North and South Islands.[3][4][5] Andrew was voted Man of the Year and Performance of the Year in the World Open Water Swimming Association awards for 2023.[6] In this podcast we go deep inside the mind, the motivation, the passion and the drive of Andy Donaldson. Be inspired. Learn.  Get Moving. Summary The Ocean Seven challenge @ 4:19 Inspired by his Rottnest Channel success, Andrew set an ambitious goal to complete the Ocean Seven, a challenge to swim the world's 7 toughest open water channels, all within a single year. This required extensive planning, a dedicated support team, and significant fundraising, as each swim cost around $10,000. Despite facing many logistical and physical challenges, Andrew was able to complete all 7 swims in the target timeframe, setting a new world record. Lessons learned from the Ocean Seven @ 24:08 Each of the Ocean Seven swims taught Andrew valuable lessons that applied to life beyond swimming. Key lessons included the importance of a strong support team, being adaptable in the face of adversity, not getting caught up in external noise or doubts, and focusing on what he could control rather than worrying about uncontrollable factors.
