Prepare your Swimrun
with a Triple World Champion's Method
Personalized coaching for ambitious amateurs: swimming, trail, transitions, gear, nutrition and race strategy — designed around your busy professional life.
Why swimrun is the perfect sport for demanding professionals
Born in 2006 in the Stockholm archipelago with the legendary ÖtillÖ, swimrun is now recognised as one of the most complete endurance sports in the world. The principle: alternating, in pairs and without equipment transitions, open-water swimming sections and trail running over courses ranging from 10 to more than 75 kilometres. Cut wetsuit, paddles, pull-buoy and trail shoes stay on the athlete the entire race — every transition becomes a mini-effort of its own. This hybrid format demands aerobic power, open-water swim technique, technical trail running and the ability to cooperate with a partner under fatigue. That density is what makes it a unique challenge: a single race format compresses several disciplines into raw environments (sea, lakes, forests, islands), where strategy matters as much as the engine. For an ambitious amateur, swimrun is not a variation of triathlon — it's a discipline of its own, requiring specific and structured preparation.

The real challenges of amateur swimrun
Three pitfalls that wreck more races than weather or terrain ever will.
Water-to-land transitions
Poorly managed, they generate a brutal cardiac spike that destroys the next 15 minutes of running. It's a trainable skill, not luck.
Hidden technical gaps
90% of amateur swimmers carry technical flaws that drain them on swim sections. Without a corrective protocol, every kilometer in the water costs double.
Pair strategy, often ignored
On long distances, the binôme is decisive: tether use, pace contracts, role split in transitions. Most amateur teams improvise — and pay for it after kilometer 20.
