Aprašymas

Cold Water: A Swimmer's Journey from London's Wintry Lidos to Iceland's Atlantic Bays is an inspiring journey into the remarkable world of ice swimming. Over four years, author Jack Hudson and his family pursue some of the sport's toughest challenges, including Ice Miles and Ice Kilometres completed in water below 5°C and without wetsuits. Beginning in London's winter lidos during the pandemic and stretching to the icy bays of Iceland, this engaging travelogue explores the physical, psychological and emotional rewards of cold-water immersion. Along the way, Hudson meets some of the world's leading endurance swimmers, including Simon Murie, Colin Hill, Pedro Ordenes and Anna-Carin Nordin, combining their expertise with his own experiences. Part adventure story, part practical guide and part exploration of human resilience, Cold Water examines why cold-water swimming continues to attract people from all walks of life. It offers training advice, safety insights and a deeper understanding of the relationship between cold water, wellbeing, nature and community.
