Send us a textI was delighted to sit down and talk to former Japanese National Swimmer and FINA Masters World Record Holder - Ryosuke Imai.Rio is a passionate and successful masters swimmer and an advocate for masters swimming in Japan.  He is also an inventor, a swim company owner, a marathon runner and newly announced ambassador for next years FINA World Masters in Fukuoka.It takes a pretty courageous person to apply for College in the US without even speaking English, but that is what Ryo did, and he had a super successful career swimming for USC under Mark Schubert in the NCAA's.  He was the first man to swim under 1 minute in 100m breaststroke SC and he parlayed that onto the Japanese National Team.  We spoke about all this and how that background in swimming and his love for bringing swimming equipment technology to Japan, led to him starting his masters career.Fukuoka sounds like the place to be next year for the World's and Ryo gave me a few tips for making it a seamless visit.  You won't want to miss listening to this episode.You can connect with Ryo;Facebook: Ryosuke ImaiInstagram: @ryo_wonderyearsWebsite: https://wonderyears.jpYou can connect with Torpedo Swimtalk with all links at:Don't forget we are now on You Tube at:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv4RkMSKExO8MkW63bX_3PQSupport the showYou can connect with Torpedo Swimtalk:WebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeSign up for our Newsletter Leave us a reviewTorpedo Swimtalk is sponsored by AMANZI SWIMWEAR#swim #swimmer #swimming #mastersswimmer #mastersswimmers #mastersswimming #openwaterswimmer #openwaterswimmers #openwaterswimming #swimminglover #swimmingpodcast #mastersswimmingpodcast #torpedoswimtalkpodcast #torpedoswimtalk #tstquicksplashpodcast #podcast #podcaster #podcastersofinstagram #swimmersofinstagram #swimlife #swimfit #ageisjustanumber #health #notdoneyet
