Propulsion Swimming Podcast

Keanna MacInnes has owned the 200m Butterfly in Britain for years, but this summer, she took things to a whole new level. After a historic 100m Fly final at the Commonwealth Games alongside her Scottish teammates, Keanna went on to drop a massive British Record in the 100m fly and secure medley relay Gold and 200m Butterfly Gold at the European Championships!

In this episode of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast, Dan and Scott nerd out with Keanna over her training blocks. We discuss why she actually argues with her coaches for more high-intensity fly volume, the technical breathing changes she made to drop 2 seconds on her relay split, and the training philosophies behind the University of Stirling's massive wave of success.

Katie Shanahan just had the summer of her life—but the journey there was anything but easy.

After battling glandular fever, a severe back injury, and fracturing her hand just weeks after trials, Katie bounced back to win Commonwealth Silver in her home city of Glasgow and European Gold with a massive 2:06.13 200m Backstroke British Record!

In this episode of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast, Dan and Scott sit down with Katie to dissect her incredible summer. We discuss the cultural shift at Stirling that is elevating GB women's swimming, why she's officially dropping the 400 IM, and her technical goals heading towards LA 2028.

Team GB finished at the very top of the medal table, and they did it in style.

We also celebrate a massive, long-awaited Gold medal for Keanna MacInnes in the Women's 200m Butterfly.
