As the summer winds down in the Northern Hemisphere, our thoughts are turning to making the most of the autumn and winter months. For most of us that means spending more time in the pool, developing our technique and improving fitness before all of a sudden it’s the summer again, and those seemingly distant open water challenges you’ve been talking about are just around the corner.
