One Water Race Documentary – To raise awareness

  • One Water Race
  • May 31, 2022

One Water Race is launched as the world’s toughest endurance race and is for the absolute top elite in endurance sports. The payoff is, as known, The ultimate proof of human capacity. However, the purpose of the race is not only to take endurance sports to a new level, One Water Race also has the higher purpose to raise awareness about climate change and  the health of our oceans, through this spectacular challenge.

The participating teams in the One Water Race must not only possess the physical strength, endurance and the grit required, but we also ask for their help to spread the message; that we all have the power of human capacity to make change. 

As we speak, recordings for One Water Race Documentary are currently being made worldwide, where we follow the teams in their preparations for the race in August. 

Our Swedish media crew with producer Hans Fahlén, recognized from Swedish TV and Adventure and Travel shows, together with our photographer André Prtic got the great pleasure to meet with the teams and will follow them all along until they reach the finish line. 

The teams we have met so far in Australia, Uruguay and in three different states in the USA all have different starting points and conditions for training. How they will cope with the harsher climate in the Stockholm archipelago remains to be seen.

Hi Hans, what do you have to say about the teams you’ve met so far?

100% passionate and expectant before the challenge, One Water Race. Even if it’s the first time and is untried, they realize that it will be extremely tough and crazy hard… but they love it. For me who has never been close to what they will be exposed to, I can not help but be fascinated by their smile get them talking about the physical and mental challenge that One Water Race entails.

Can you tell/see some differences between the teams? Do they all have what it takes to complete this big challenge?

All the teams feel extremely close-knit and strong. Both physically and mentally… but are they be able to cope with the many and long swimming stages in the cold water…? Add to that, strong winds, high waves and at night carbon black… it can probably be one of the breaking points for many of the teams.

Do not mention names, but do you have a team you would bet your money on?

Yes, I have a team I’ll believe have big chances to win the first One Water Race and the reason is for their long experience and strong team spirit.

What was the most fun/interesting with meeting the teams?

Their passion and zest for life. Despite the high tempo during the recording, we were greeted by everyone with good hospitality and understanding of our tight time frame.

During the race, all teams will be documented by runner companions and escort boats, day and night, and it will be exciting to see which will be the biggest challenges during the race and how they are handled by the different teams. This will be broadcasted here during 23-25 Aug.

THE STORY
Join the seven teams that took on the challenge of crossing the Stockholm archipelago, 60+ hours nonstop. Which teams reached the mysterious lighthouse at the finish line in this year's race, and which teams had to drop out due to exhaustion, hunger, medical reasons or because they failed to meet the set time limits. You will also learn the history of the race, meet the people who do this almost impossible race and perhaps the most interesting part; why they want to do it.

ABOUT
One Water Race will now for the first time reach the global market. The purpose of the Race Summary is to connect with an audience that doesn't know what OWR is and hasn't seen any of our previous productions. The production will give an insight into what OWR is and stands for as a race and as a concept, and through our athletes be fascinated and inspired by a new era in endurance racing. An era where we get closer to the sport and really get to know what our amazing racers go through during the One Water Race.

"Reaching Landsort Lighthouse in 2022 was hugely satisfying for our newly formed team but soon our goals shifted for 2023. We grew as individuals and as a team to overcome many challenges and to finish a more difficult course took nearly 60hrs of sustained effort and positive teamwork. Thanks to One Water Race for setting the bar at a high level and challenging the best athletes in the world in the most beautiful environment."
