Outdoor Swimming for Beginners

Everything you've ever wanted to know about outdoor swimming but been too afraid to ask!
In a warm welcome to all new(ish) swimmers join Alpkit and The Outdoor Swimming Society for an hour of outdoor swimming chat, with no question off limits.
Aoife Glass talks to guest speakers Kate Rew, Calum Maclean and Owen Haymen about how to swim in cold water. They answer questions posed by people getting into outdoor swimming and wanting to do more of it.
How does cold water feel? What's the best way to warm up? Where's my nearest wild swimming group? Is it dangerous to swim with seals? Will I get too cold? Have pikes bitten your toes?
