Completing numerous challenges over the years Adventurous Swimmer have introduced their own to help encourage others to swim throughout winter.
Swim the length of your chosen UK lake in a space of four months in any outdoor unheated setting and you can get a badge or your own thermal flask. Running from 1st November 2024 to 1st March 2025, water temperature is not important, the aim is simply to swim the distances:
· Winter-mere: 18km
· Ulls-winter: 12km
· Cold-iston: 8.5km
· Chill-mere: 6km
· Bitter-mere: 2km
Don’t forget – this is an open water swim challenge and water temperatures drop rapidly in winter, respect the cold water and stay safe. Both wetsuits and skins are welcome.
