Good news! Today Orca is bringing you another post (accompanied by a video) in which we will share what swimrun means to our athletes and how it differs from traditional triathlons.

As we mentioned in our first post, most swimrunners come from triathlon, where their biggest handicap is usually the cycling portion. Our athletes talk about how the multiple transitions and chances to swim in very different locations make this sport unique.

It is not just running on a flat terrain; in fact, there are climbs and descents through mountains with rare views that you would seldom be able to see unless you practice this sport.

The final, and one of the most important reasons for participating in swimrun is being able to run with a partner, which adds to the enjoyment of the individual achievement. As a bonus, races also take place out in nature, which makes it twice as entertaining.

In this video, you can hear what each of our athletes thinks about it.

Finally, subscribe to our channel if you haven't yet and learn all about swimrun first-hand!

How to measure yourself

For best results, take your measurements with no clothing on

Place the measuring tape over the widest part of your chest.

Hold one end of the measuring tape in place and circle your chest, keeping the tape straight, until the tape reaches your starting point.

Get a book, a hand mirror and a pencil.

Take off your shoes and anything you wear on your head.

Look for a level surface to stand on with a smooth wall behind you.

Stand in front of the wall with your feet together.

Balance the book on your head and press it against the wall. Use the mirror to check that it is in a horizontal position and well centered. Mark the position of the top of your head on the wall with pencil.

Once the mark is made, step away and use a measuring tape to measure the distance from the ground to the mark you just made with pencil.

Step on the scale, without clothes or accessories, and write down your weight.
