Swimming Events in East of England

The Dedham Vale Mill 2 Mill Swim isn't a race. It's a social swim and a picnic at Flatford Mill, in the heart of idyllic Constable Country. The only difference is to get to the picnic you have to swim from Dedham Mill 2.3km away. The Mill 2 Mill is part of the Slow Swimming campaign, aimed at encouraging swimmers to take their time and enjoy the opportunity to be out fully immersed in nature. There are no timing chips or results sheets. Everyone who takes part is a winner equally.

This exciting series involves open water swim events based at the excellent Box End Park.

Distances range from 750m up to 5km + 10k at the BONUS RACE in September and are aimed at swimmers and triathletes looking to test themselves at different levels.

Towards the end of the summer swimming season every year we host a marvelous day of measured and timed open water swims at the beautiful Fritton lake. Situated within Fritton Lake Country Park, part of the Somerleyton Estate this is the ideal event to bring your supporters to. With plenty of opportunities to spectate, explore the woodland trails through the Country Park or simply relax, your friends and family are welcome to stay all day. With three distances to choose from, ranging from 1500m to 5km there is an event for everyone. Can't choose? Why not make a day of it and swim all three? With prizes for the top 3 swimmers taking on all events and a special package where you get entries to all 3 events for the price of 2 there's every reason to take on this challenge! Whatever your choice its always a fun and relaxed way to finish a Summer of swimming.
