We have always been very curious about Swimrunman France Series by ZOGGS, a series of 3 races through steep gorges, across big mountains and in striking settings. The words 'totally epic' and 'not for the faint hearted' come to mind. Thank you SWIMRUNMAN for speaking with us in English!

In 2016, Jason Britton and his partner signed up for ÖtillÖ Swimrun in Sweden with very minimal swimrun experience. After being blown away by the beauty and challenge of the race, Jason returned home to Canada and began planning a race of his own. Six years later, SwimRun Edmonton is going strong with Jason at the helm, now recognised as one of the best annual swimrun events in North America.

Some of the UK’s evangelical swimrun community were out spreading the word today at the National Outdoor Show today!

Bringing new people into the sport is key to its growth with lots of great chats had with potential swimrunners. One of the main things we picked up on today were people looking for a change from more sterile sports.

And we found ourselves saying the same thing:

⭐️The swimrun community will welcome you with open arms.

⭐️ You will see some beautiful places and have great experiences.

⭐️ You don’t have to be an athlete in a conventional sense but a willingness to embrace the spirit of adventure.

Swimrun 💙. Let’s keep building this great community across the world!

We will cover:
💦 How fit do you need to be?
💦 What gear and equipment do you need?
💦 What should you focus on in your training?
💦 What pitfalls do you need to avoid?
💦 How to get ready for event day.
