The Swimmer February 8th 2024

Starting at Hampstead High Street, we run around half a marathon through London ending at Brockwell Park . The Swimmer is an epic little journey through London's finest parks, ponds and pools (Hampstead Ponds, Parliament Hill Lido, Serpentine and Brockwell Lido). Expect cold water but a very warm welcome.

This is the classic route.

It's rough and ready, relaxed and a bit more of a club atmosphere. Covid has made all the moving parts of ponds, pool access more difficult and it is liable to continue to shift about a bit.

If we cancel it, we refund. If something goes wrong, we'll do our best to fix it and compensate you. This started as a hobby. Still is.

But we do need you to approach it with a bit of a relaxed attitude and a bit of trust that we can't quite control everything - what we can say is there's a van for your kit, swims are covered, we have insurance and there's food and drinks at the end. And a lovely fun and very game crowd of men and women is a guarantee.

All the best
