We've finally found a time to reflect on the best ever OtillO World Championships! (in Mike's experience). We came home in 9h 58m 58s, claiming the title of first British team, and first English speaking podcast team, quite a title.Brought to you by Mike Alexander, founder of WeSwimrun.

Huge congratulations to Marika Wagner & Team 6 who finished One Water Race!It will help if you can see the video on this one as I share the map on screen as we talk through the 56 hour journey.A full review of the race could take many many hours, even days! Hopefully you enjoy this glimpse into the 3 days.Brought to you by Mike Alexander, founder of weswimrun.org.

Stephen Derrett is racing as a pro-triathlete this year, you may have seen him at The Eliminator in Aberdyfi in 2025 and 2026.He is also reigning champion of Patagonman!Our chat covered both triathlon and swimrun topics, but in the end I think we concluded that swimrun was much better :-)
