Ten-year-old Tomáš and 15-year-old Kája tried their first cold-water swim today. Thinking of joining us? Get in touch beforehand and read our beginners’ guide. Here are photographs from today’s swim. Update: the videos have been removed.
Thank you to everyone who began the weekend with a swim in the pleasantly chilled Ostravice. At 10°C, it is starting to feel like proper cold-water swimming. Soon it will be even better.
Feeling competitive? Find out about winter swimming races, the season’s calendar and the rules. Most races require registration with the Czech Swimming Sports Federation (ČSPS). I will gladly explain the process and help you register. See you at the water on 2 October at 9am.
A warm invitation to everyone who enjoys winter swimming and cold exposure: join us for the opening of the cold-water swimming season in Frýdek-Místek.
Thanks to a special exemption, on Saturday we were able to celebrate the end of a successful 2020/2021 season together. Thank you to Michal Ševčík for the photos.
We also have a Facebook group. Think of it as the clubhouse we do not have in real life. It is just for those of us who actually come to the river and know one another.
