September issue | Long Distance | Issue No. 99
This September, Outdoor Swimmer celebrates the awe-inspiring world of long-distance swimming. Marking the 150th anniversary of Captain Matthew Webb’s legendary English Channel crossing, we explore what drives swimmers to push beyond their limits and take on some of the most daunting challenges in open water. From epic solo crossings to record-breaking relays, discover stories of grit, resilience, and courage in the face of unpredictable conditions, mental barriers, and the sheer vastness of nature.
Whether you’re preparing for your first marathon swim, considering a big challenge, or simply curious about the mindset and training required, this issue will both inspire and inform. Alongside tales of endurance and triumph, we bring you practical advice on fueling for longer swims, essential gear to help you transition into cooler waters, and tips on making the most of autumn swimming.
Be inspired. Be challenged. Be ready for your next adventure.
