Getting ready to jump in 💦

Huge thanks to our local boat driver Antonia, who supported us perfectly, just like she did back in 2019!

For those who missed our stories, don’t worry—stay tuned for more updates coming soon!

A true game changer in the world of swimrun!💦
In 2015, Marika Wagner became the first woman in the Swimrun World Championship ÖTILLÖ’s ten-year history to complete the prestigious swimrun competition in under 9 hours, finishing with an astonishing time of 8:55:39 alongside her teammate Staffan Björklund.
Today in swimrun, there’s a lot of talk about"the bigger pull buoy, the better" Well, Marika set this historical record using two water bottles that she taped together.
Back in 2015, the sport and its gear hadn’t evolved as much, and swimrunners wanting to go fast needed to be resourceful and ingenious.
The @otillorace race spans a grueling 75 km, including approximately 10 km of swimming in open water and the remainder running across the stunning islands of the Stockholm archipelago.
Marika’s journey didn’t stop there; she continues to be a prominent figure in multisport and swimrun, inspiring athletes around the globe with her dedication and passion.
Join us in celebrating @idamarika groundbreaking legacy and the limitless possibilities within the swimrun community! 💙
