Just keep swimming with Lynton Mortensen (Part 1 of 2)

Lynton Mortensen is a mild-mannered lawyer on land, but a 'sea bull' in water. He's the first Australian and only the 12th person in the world to complete the 'Oceans Seven' - a gruelling combination of the toughest open swims in the world. We chat about these swims and his most recent epic splash - a 30km swim Lord Howe Island to highlight the plight of the Flesh-footed Shearwater (muttonbird) and help raise funds for the ongoing research by the Adrift Lab team.
