Distance covered 16 kms
Faros Marathon
I braved one of the coldest swims of my career at the Faros Marathon on the coast of Hvar Island, where the water temperature was a chilly 15 degrees Celsius. Despite the harsh conditions, I was the only Indian to compete in the event in 2007, showcasing my determination and resilience as an open-water swimmer.
