As the name suggests, this is going to be one cold open water swim!

Details: Blast away those post-festive blues with this race over two distances- either 500m (10 lengths) or 1km (20 lengths).

This is a seriously challenging event and subsequently organisers stress that only seasoned experienced winter swimmers who are acclimatised to swimming in very cold water take part. They also insist that swimmers MUST wear a winter wetsuit and silicon hat for this event with boots and gloves a suggested addition.

Spectators are welcome and much needed warm drinks will be available to purchase. The event is only open to those aged 17 and over. The event will be cancelled and entry fees refunded if the pool is iced over.

Entry: £15.00 for 500m race and £20 for 1km race
