Introducing TEAM 10 – SWEDEN
Team 10 – SWE is a newly formed dynamic team, brought together by returning competitor Isabella Brandt, who brings experience from One Water Race 2024. Alongside her, Marcus Brandt adds endurance and expert navigation skills, Thomas Gottlind contributes mental resilience and ultra-endurance strength, and support crew Rasmus Söderholm, with his military background, ensures strategic and precise execution. Each team member contributes unique qualities, forming a unit where every strength complements the next. Their mission is clear — to push through every obstacle, endure every hardship, and reach the lighthouse as one unstoppable force.
“One Water Race is the ultimate test of endurance, teamwork, and determination. More than just a physical challenge, it pushes every competitor beyond their mental limits. For Team 10 – SWE, this is more than a race—it’s the greatest adventure, and we’re ready to take it on together.”
I love to challenge my body and I am not one to give up.
