About the Event

Competitors in both the Boulter’s to Bray Swim and the Boulter’s Mile must demonstrate strong swimming abilities. For the longer distance, participants are expected to swim 80 lengths of a standard 25-meter pool, showcasing endurance and stamina over an extended period. In contrast, swimmers tackling the shorter Boulter's Mile need only cover 40 lengths but still require solid fitness levels to complete this demanding challenge efficiently.
Participants should feel confident in their swimming skills as both events push athletes to maintain a consistent pace throughout the duration of the race. The pool environment offers clear water and well-defined lanes, ensuring swimmers can focus on their technique and performance without distractions from external factors such as waves or currents that might be present in an open-water setting.
Whether you’re looking for a rigorous test of your swimming prowess over a longer distance or prefer to challenge yourself within the confines of 40 lengths, both events provide an excellent opportunity to demonstrate your aquatic abilities and compete against fellow enthusiasts who share your passion for the sport.

About Maidenhead

Learn more about the host city, Maidenhead.

Maidenhead is a large riverside town in the county of Berkshire in the South East of England. Like many towns, Maidenhead has lost some of its historic charm, and the town centre is a little uninspiring and overdeveloped in some parts. It does however retain some handsome 18th- and 19th-century buildings. The area near the river, locally known as Maidenhead Riverside, however, is a picturesque contrast to this, offering stunning views of the Thames and Chiltern Hills, along with scenic walks towards the villages of Cookham, Marlow, Bray and Windsor and Eton.
