Beat The Tide 4km
Sun 14 Sep 2025
Simply the best 4km of swimming that we know of, first held in 2017.
Swim start 12:00.
PREREQUISITE
Able to swim a minimum of 2km in 45 minutes in open water. The prerequisite is in place because of the tidal nature of the swim.
Registration: 10:00 to 10:45 in Dovey Yacht Club, Aberdyfi.
Here's what Peter said:
"I am 41 and have had a desk job and otherwise been sedentary for the last 20 years. Entering and training for a 4km swim to meet the race requirements has been a heady mix of rewarding, challenging, fun and somewhat life changing. I've made friends at local outdoor swimming lakes, lost weight, improved flexibility...
...I realised about a month ago that I was going to be able to complete the swim which meant that I was able to relax and really enjoy the training and subsequently the race.
I had a super time on the day which has really come across on the photos.
I'll be swimming with you again as soon as I can. I have started training for a long swim and am really hoping a 2024 Dyfi 13km will be a thing...
Thanks again for organising and putting together such a fun day"
