#194: What Is SIPE? Henry Goodlud’s Story & Woking’s World-Record Formula

Woking Swimming Club’s Henry Goodlud joins the podcast to share his experience of developing Swimming-Induced Pulmonary Edema (SIPE), a potentially serious condition that forced him out of the water just weeks before the British Masters Championships in Aberdeen.

Henry explains what SIPE is, how it developed during a 24-hour relay challenge, the symptoms swimmers shouldn’t ignore, and what can be done to reduce the risks.

We also dive into the science behind Woking’s remarkable relay success, as Henry reveals the mathematical selection model that helped the club break two masters world relay records in Aberdeen.

And in a surprise twist, Henry turns interviewer, putting podcast host Helen Gorman in the hot seat with a few unexpected questions of his own.
