Hello all,

The legendary Beat The Tide 4km is now open for entries!

Enter here.

Soon after the 2023 edition Peter emailed in his thoughts on the event:

"I am 41 and have had a desk job and otherwise been sedentary for the last 20 years. Entering and training for a 4km swim to meet the race requirements has been a heady mix of rewarding, challenging, fun and somewhat life changing. I've made friends at local outdoor swimming lakes, lost weight, improved flexibility...

...I realised about a month ago that I was going to be able to complete the swim which meant that I was able to relax and really enjoy the training and subsequently the race.

I had a super time on the day which has really come across on the photos. I will definitely enter your future events, and hope to build myself up to The Dyfi 13km in 2024. Thanks for such a fun and memorable day."

For those who swim at Princes Dock, Swim Liverpool, yes you heard it right - the UK's first floating sauna is on it's way!

That's all for now,
