Outdoor Swimmer has announced its return to print of Outdoor Swimmer magazine with a special limited-edition September 2020 issue, published at the end of August. This special edition issue has just opened for pre-order.
The theme of the special September issue is ‘Open Water Dreams’. The publisher notes that plans may have changed, but… ‘the Outdoor Swimmer September 2020 issue is one of hope, celebrating challenges overcome and dreams fulfilled despite the current situation. Adventure may be closer to home, but there are still adventures to be had – big and small.’
Included in the September 2020 issue:
- Outdoor Swimmer meets Stephen Redmond (first person to complete the Oceans Seven), whose obsession with a pioneer swim in Ireland came to fruition this July
- Proving that age is no barrier, the mag talks to the man who did 105 Ironmans at 60
- Feature on six women and their nail-biting Channel relay that nearly ended in failure
- Learn about the first ever swim to The Goodwin Sands, 8km off the Kent coast, the young adventurer who swam all the lakes in the Lake District, and the story of a record-breaking English Channel backstroke swim.
- In addition, as the endurance sport industry and brands welcome new swimmers to swimming outdoors, the magazine looks at open water safety and safe sea swimming.
- Ella Foote, Contributing Editor, explores how to campaign to keep rivers and waterways clean and safe for swimming; and Elaine Howley looks at how global warming is affecting historic swims and swimming locations worldwide.
- There will also be a catch up on the usual mix of outdoor swimming news, training & technique, nature & wildlife, travel UK and abroad, gear reviews – and issue seven of Swimrunner, the mag’s special swimrun section.
The September issue is 112 pages, bound and printed in full colour on FSC approved paper.
