Desirée Andersson

Welcome to episode twenty-seven of the Low Tide Boyz, a Swimrun Podcast!

On this week’s guest doesn’t need much of an introduction. Within Swimrun circles if you just say the name “Desirée” and everybody knows who you are talking about. Hailing for Stockholm Sweden, she is the reigning two-time Otillo Swimrun World Champion (2018 & 2019) with her partner and friend of the show Fanny Kuhn (she was on the show in Episode 10). Most recently they won the inaugural Ötillö Catalina race and they are ramping up to defend their world title in August.

Training continues to go well. We actually did a Swimrun practice this past weekend and it was fun even though the water was a little gross because it was very low tide, too low. (The irony is not lost on us) The swimming and running will continue at this beach for sure because it’s a very good spot for working on what Nicolas Remirez (from Episode 14) calls Swimrun technique.

For our shout out this week, we are tipping the hat to our friend John Hayato for his amazing 12 hour run around the block of his house in Denver to raise funds for KEEN USA. KEEN helps kids with physical and cognitive disabilities enjoy exercise. It’s a great a cause and John raised over $2,000 while running almost 50 miles!

His feat of endurance got us thinking…something that is dangerous for us. But alas, we are super stoked to introduce a new segment to the show: The Löw Tide Böyz Weekly Feat of Endurance! Every week we will shout out a member of the Löw Tide Böyz Strava Club for a workout or race that they post. The feats can be either epic, funny, cool route, great photo or any combination therein. The weekly winner will receive a special edition bumper sticker. All you have to do to be a part of it is join our Strava Club. (This week’s winner is John Hayato)

If that wasn’t enough, we are also starting the Löw Tide Böyz Feat of Endurance Hall of Fame! We figured that this was a worthy title for people who shouldn’t be eligible for the weekly award because they are such beasts. Our first HOF inductee is Amber Ferreira of Team Better Tethered Together. Not only has she recently “Everested” on her bike, she’s consistently crushing everything she does. Congrats Amber! You’re awesome!

In other news, our next column in triathlete magazine is dropping soon so make sure to look out for that. We were also recently interviewed for Trimax Magazine. The piece is in French so just take our word for it that it’s a nice little article if you can’t read it. Finally, Ötillö Engadin is still happening! Check out our Ötillö Engadin course preview episode if you’re going to be racing but make sure that you check on the Ötillö website to get the latest info regarding quarantines and travel restrictions.

We wanted to give a plug for our recent Swimrun Undergarments special episode with The Swimrun Labs. A lot of great info in that episode so make sure to check it out to get all your burning questions answered about how to prevent, uhm, chaffing burns, what to wear under your wetsuit and so much more.

Finally, we wanted to give everyone a quick reminder that we have some discount codes from former guests that are still good. You can use the code SWIMRUN at blueseventy.com for 20% off your order. You can also use the code LOWTIDEBOYZ at precisionhydration.com for 15% off your order. Support these great companies and make us look good in the process!

Now for our interview with Desirée!

We chatted about her athletic background, how she found Swimrun and how she ended up teaming up with Fanny to become the powerhouse Otillo World Championship winning duo. We spoke about what it’s like to always be a favorite to win and how she handles it in competition. We also chatted about what her typical training week looks like, how she trains for races when her partner lives in another country and how she will alter her training for the length of the World Championship course.

We covered a lot of ground in this episode and we learned a lot from Desirée. We really enjoyed this conversation and think that you will as well. You can follow her on Instagram here.
