When not running or hiking wild, Jude and Paul can often be found in cold (or warm) water an love sharing that experience with others. If you would like to know more about how Embrace Adventure coaching can help improve your open water technique, build confidence, prepare you for swimming events, please get in touch.

Jude has swum in lakes, rivers, the sea and the odd puddle including over 15 long course swimruns around the world (Otillo Hvar, 1000 Lakes, Isles of Scilly, Breca Buttermere, Jersey, Hokey Cokey, Roseland, Rockman), triathlons, long distance swims (24hr Swim for Life, Windermere) but is equally happy dipping into hidden wild swims spots and enjoying being immersed in all that is open water swimming. 
 
Jude and Paul are happy working with groups or individuals whether they be looking to gain confidence and skills in open water or wanting to train for a longer swim or swimrun event.
