1000 х 1000 is a no stress, relaxed swimming event where it is important to have participate and have fun. I want more people to be able to swim, but really swim, in the sea especially children.
The 1000 x 1000 could be considered as a warm up for the Galata Varna which is held the next day, but also as a long term preparation for one day participating in the marathon. During the last years, we see that nearly 50 % of the people swimming are children up to 12 years which is remarkable.
Swimming is one of the few sports where one cannot be bothered by phones or email or social media. It is good time to switch off completely and take care of one’s health
Mishap excluded, yes I will swim, less prepared as other years but I have still some reserves left.
Come and swim or support the swimmers.
