Q&A

– Why do you want to participate in One Water Race?

I am doing this more of a challenge to see what I am capable of, I also couldn’t say no when asked to join the athletes I look up to.

– Have you taken a similar challenge before?

No this will really be a new challenge for me in distance and time, I’m both nervous and excited for the adventure.

– What are your strengths?

My head, I guess I’m stubborn. But also I love to give everything for my team.

– What are your weaknesses?

Inexperience, never raced something as long as this. Not sure my body will hold up over the distance. I race best over 2-3hrs so that is going to be my biggest weakness.

– What will be your biggest challenge?

The distance and the unknown, this is a challenge that is hard to prepare for to know how the body and mind will respond with lack of sleep and such a long distance

– Have you been to the Stockholm archipelago?

Yes, I haven’t seen so much apart from the ÖtillÖ course 4 times. The rest is unknown territory for me. But not something I’m worried about as I have 2 experienced guides showing me the way.

– What do you know/think about the terrain?

From what I’ve heard it’s tougher than I expected. The parts I have been to have mostly trails, paths, roads however the parts of the archipelago we will be navigating here are going to be untamed and uncharted.

– What are you most looking forward to?

Racing with Kristin and Daniel and share this adventure together.

👋 Meet Team 3 - USA Two returning athletes fro 👋 Meet Team 3 - USA

Two returning athletes from 2022, Jarrod Shoemaker and Kristen Smith, have used their experience to put together a new dream team. Now joined by the adventure racer and pro triathlete Alyssa Godesky and ultraman athlete Steve Keller. Needless to say, they're eager to finish...

“We made it 2/3 of the way in 2022 and now we need to get it done. Alyssa and Steve love big challenges and are excited to help push the pace. Our biggest challenge will be overcoming the demons of 2022. We need to stay positive and learn from our mistakes. What we thought would be the problems were not, so learning, adapting and moving forward are our goals.”

The OWR concept is straight forward; starting at Arholma in the north, the first to reach Landsort in the south is crowned the winner. Running and swimming, the only method of movement. No track and free choice of path but with some unknown checkpoints needed to pass along the way. A new route each year making it impossible to plan in advanced.

👋 Meet Team 2 - Australia The team will includ 👋 Meet Team 2 - Australia

The team will include Rob Preston, Elizabeth Dornom, Glenn Wilkinson and Julian Dent. Coming from a strong adventure racing and endurance background they have put in the hard work to transform their skills for OWR and finished second, when competed as Team 8 Australia in 2022.

“Now we have unfinished business in the Archipelago – we want to be on top of the podium!”

They will use their experience in ultra endurance events to balance speed and navigation to ensure to keep on course and keep mistakes to a minimum. Rob’s exceptional navigation skills will be complimented by Elizabeth’s all-round physical strengths and Glenn’s swimming prowess will allow them to keep moving fast, and in the right direction. Combine this with Julian’s exceptional organizational and tactical knowledge and now an extra year of experience, their goal is to be unbeatable.
