Chill Swim are now taking bookings for their crazy dip in Lake Windermere this coming February Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th. The event consists of individual and relay races, plus an awesome endurance swim on the Sunday. The races take place at the Low Wood Bay Marina, in a pontooned area of the lake with 30m length lanes. The water will be cold, but last February was actually warmer than our Brockwell Lido.
