Swimrun

What started out as a drunken bet between two friends in Sweden is fast becoming one of the more popular alternatives to multisport racing.

What defines a swimrun is that its always carried out outdoors and in open water where your goal is to go from a starting point to a finish point through a course with several checkpoints. It has several stages, which means you have to change discipline between running and swimming several times.

The original ÖTILLÖ is regarded as one of the toughest adventure races around, but as the sport grows there are events suitable for newbies as well as hardened endurance athletes. Why not search our database and find yourself a swimrun for 2023 or 2024?
