Prolonged stable hypothermia during a 10‐hour cold open‐water marathon swim

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 1652-1656, 1 April 2026.
Abstract Marathon open‐water swimming presents extreme thermophysiological challenges, particularly in cold environments. This case report describes continuous core temperature data from a solo crossing of New Zealand's Foveaux Strait, an infamously cold (13°C –14°C), turbulent open‐water swim.
