After 250 km and 54 grueling hours, Team 6 SWE/AUS triumphed in One Water Race 2025 – their third win in what’s now being called the toughest edition in the event’s history. Only two out of ten teams crossed the finish line, as freezing conditions led to multiple medical evacuations. Broadcast live for 65 hours and watched globally, the race pushed human limits like never before – with scientists capturing real-time data on how the body endures extreme cold, exhaustion, and sleep deprivation.

About the Race

The concept is straight forward: the race begins at Arholma in the north, and the first to reach Landsort in the south is crowned the winner. Running and swimming are the only means of movement, with no set course – participants can choose their own route. However, they must pass through several undisclosed checkpoints along the way. Navigation and orienteering are crucial, and with a new route each year, planning in advance is impossible.
