At Outdoor Swimmer we're on a mission to provide inspiration and information for people who swim (or want to swim) outdoors. 

Everyone on the Outdoor Swimmer editorial team is a passionate outdoor swimmer, as are the majority of our contributors. We do short wild swims, long distance solo swims, open water races and cold water events. We sometimes wear wetsuits and sometimes don't. We've had our personal triumphs and our share of DNFs (did not finishes). We talk to other swimmers every day and call on experts when we don't know all the answers. Then, each month, we pour all this passion and expertise into a beautifully crafted print magazine that's full of advice and stories to help you make the most of this amazing and life-enhancing activity of outdoor swimming.

And we sell it for just £5.25* per copy! And that goes down to £4.15 per copy for subscribers.**

Our November issue (see cover image top right) is currently at the printer and will be available to buy directly from us from Thursday, and we'll be running a time-limited offer for you to buy the issue at the same price our subscribers pay, plus we'll be including a free guide to club swimming - so look out for a further email from us later this week for details.

Meanwhile, we're down to our last few copies of our October issue (see image above top left), which has been one of our best selling ever. We expect these to be gone by the end of the week, so if you want one, you can order it here.

Happy swimming
