Making waves: turn to page 40 to discover the many mind and body benefits of wild swimming

This issue MF is championing The Great Outdoors and, specifically, the many fitness opportunities that exist in nature’s playground. On page 40, author Joe Minihane takes you on a deep dive of open water’s open secret: wild swimming. Take the plunge, he says, and enjoy an icy tonic for both body and mind. Away from the water, there is plenty for those who like to keep their feet – and their wheels – on solid ground. For this issue’s Big Interview, we sat down with James Golding, the cancer-surviving cyclist whose journey from near death to arguably the world’s toughest bike race begs the question, what’s your excuse? Elsewhere, we run the rule over London’s first-of-its-kind ‘Clean Air’ running club – which utilises cutting-edge tech to take its members on pollution-free routes across the capital – and of course you can expect the usual muscle-crafting workouts, nutrition know-how, kit reviews and must-read news to help you reach your fitness potential.
