🏊 Swim Preparedness for Sandefjordsfjorden
The plan’s video-based swim drills and open-water sessions prepare you for the 1.9km swim in sheltered fjord waters, with the skills to handle the Australian exit and re-entry. Cold-water acclimatization guidance supports comfort and efficiency in expected 18–20°C temperatures.

Training includes power-based sessions to handle long efforts between the two aid stations per lap, keeping you race-day ready.
