SIX MONTHS TO GO TO #3CROATIA

...and six reasons to enter UltraSwim 33.3

Well, here we are with six months to go until UltraSwim 33.3 #3Croatia. Each UltraSwim 33.3 event is different, and each swimmer’s experience is different but as race organisers, there are a few things we can guarantee: from world-class safety and event management to a comprehensive preparation programme - we’ve got your back. Having said that, it will still come down to you, physically and mentally, for you to accomplish your dreams and become your best self. Six months out, you should indeed feel a little uncomfortable on the one hand, but reassured by the support you will get from us, but also all the other swimmers. Open water swimming may be very solo, but UltraSwim 33.3 is all about teamwork too!
**So what will your experience look like? Here are our top six reasons to enter and find out…**

We hate laps. It’s for this reason that we have created an Epic Adventure Swim Race Series™ that takes you to the most stunning locations in Europe to swim the iconic distance of the English Channel. We’re talking secret coves, caves, abandoned submarine bases, channel crossings, even country to country sometimes, and of course beautiful nature above and below. No two minutes will be the same and every day in Croatia will offer a new location to explore. So bring your friends, family and partners - this adventure is for everyone - we have a special package for them too!

Most come to our event alone but realistically everyone is in it together. One thing we saw first-hand in Montenegro is the sense of community a multi-day swimming event fosters. Whether it’s finding your ‘time tribe’ (the swimmers who average the same time and ability as you, that you might work together with on the water) or swapping tips and tricks - everyone is looking out for one another. Lifelong memories and made and valuable friendships are formed. This is so much more than just a race.

Swimming 33.3km is no small feat. Even divided over four days, it’s an epic challenge, one that you might not even be sure you can accomplish. But before you start doubting yourself, let us tell you a few things we know - in fact maybe just one thing… you can do it! As long as you meet the entry requirements , and are ready to push yourself through some moments of doubt, you can complete the 33.3km. We saw so many self-doubters on the start line in Montenegro and guess what? Almost all of them finished every stage (and there is no lack of honour in not making all of them, the rest of the planet weren’t even on the startline!). This is about challenging yourself, hitting that doubt on the head and realising you’re capable of more than you think.

Plus, our expert team will help you every step of the way.

Whether you think you can or you think you can’t… either way you’ll be right! Everyone enters UltraSwim 33.3 for different reasons, perhaps you’re a pool swimmer looking for a new adventure within the sport, or you’re on a personal journey and find solace in the water, a triathlete looking for work on their swim, or an English Channel hopeful building your confidence - whatever your reason, the sense of accomplishment on that finish line will be overwhelming.

Six months to go is the perfect time to sign up. Not only will you be at peak personal fitness by the time #Croatia comes along, you’ll also have the help of our expert coaches and staff and training plan options, not to mention the advice from (and interaction with) members of the 33.3 Club - finishers of previous events. Use UltraSwim 33.3 #3Croatia as the opportunity to push yourself out of your comfort zone!

This is one of the biggest reasons to take part in UltraSwim 33.3 #3Croatia. You won’t know until you reach that finish line just what the experience will mean to you. As event organisers we have been privilege to some of the most beautiful stories and journeys of personal growth. We have seen unbreakable bonds form and watched as swimmers encouraged each other throughout.

So what will your experience look like? There’s only one way to find out…
