Over the years the team at Swimyourswim have gained a huge amount of knowledge through their experience of supporting nearly 100 successful ice mile swims.

All Ice Swimming is Ice Swimming – that might sound obvious – but we believe that any swim in ‘ice conditions’ (under 5ºC), regardless of how long in time or distance, is still an Ice Swim. For us, it is the Ice Journey that is really important – the story of an Ice Swimmers whole adventure in the ice, not just the ‘result’ of attaining the Ice Mile itself. Some Ice Swimmers have become official Ice Milers on their first attempt, some have had multiple attempts, and some have yet to make the Ice Mile. All are successful in our eyes, as Ice Mile Swimming is not a race or event, it is a journey
