Before we start talking about how to make your son or daughter fall in love with open water swimming we must clarity that the main goal of participating in such events should be having fun! In all of our crossings we include a Junior Open Water Crossing so that from an early age they learn to love the sea and find enjoyment in swimming in an open water environment. 

In that regards, the Medes Junior is the kids version of the Neda El Món crossings. It is a leisure and free activity set up to promote open waters from a young age. In this year's event, every kid will be able to register for one of the crossings of 50m, 100m and 200m. And as it happened in previous swims, if parents want to join their kids while they swim, they can do so.

Medes 2022 postponed until 5th June

5/6/2022

medesjuny

Unfortunately, the forecast for Sunday May the 8th is getting worse and we will have Tramuntana during the whole day. With the new forecast, we don't see any options for swimming in the Medes. We’ve valued that with the paddle surf team and kayaking team and they won’t be able to get to the Medes either. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the safety of swimmers in these conditions.

We also don't want to waste your time. Knowing that we will not be able to do anything attractive enough, we prefer to postpone the crossing until next June the 5th. We know that there is no ideal solution, but we think that this decision will allow you to enjoy and, above all, not suffer. Surely on June 5 we will be able to enjoy the open water, the Medes, a better sea and a better temperature, both outside and inside the water. The whole program is as it was, but on June 4th and 5th. As always in these cases, we reopen registrations.

Obviously this decision is very sad for us. The work behind it is terrible! But we will enjoy it in June for sure! Thanks for your understanding!


About the previous test and the sea temperature in Medes

4/30/2022

ma

On Saturday previous the event, Neda el Món and a group of swim-addicts did the test for Medes. And we did it thinking especially about the temperature of the sea water. And we swam without troubles, smoothly. The sea temperature on the Costa Brava is currently 15ºC. And the forecast is that by the weekend of May 7 and 8 it will rise to a maximum of 16ºC. Taking into account this scenario, we have obviously asked ourselves questions. And we've taken those questions to the experts. Can we normally organise the 13th Neda el Món Illes Medes per la Marató de TV3 by ZOGGS normally?

The unanimous answer was yes, but with some recommendations for swimmers:

  • Only those who are very, very adapted to swimming in cold water can do so without wetsuit.
  • As a general rule, everyone should wear wetsuits to avoid being exposed to cold water for too long time.
  • It is also recommended to use neoprene gloves, socks and even swimcap for those who suffer the most from the cold.
  • You need to keep calm when entering to the water. The feet, hands and, above all, the head will suffer from the cold at the initial moment. You need to relax, not get overwhelmed and keep swimming calmly because this feeling will go away in 3 or 4 minutes. Then you can even enjoy the cold water.

These recommendations will allow you to swim all distances without any problems, including 5.1k. If you feel more comfortable with shorter distances anyway, no problem if you want to switch to shorter distances. Just ask us at info@nedaelmon.com and we will proceed with the change.

Medes 2022: the most cheritable and... the most sustainable!

4/14/2022

sostenible

From the beginning, in 2010, the Neda el Món Illes Medes per la Marató de TV3 by ZOGGS has been the only popular 100% charitable crossing in Catalonia.  From now on, the 2022 edition, we want it to be the most sustainable too, from environmental point of view. And we want it to be sustainable in 1) mobility and 2) waste management:

  1. Sustainable mobility, using motorized vehicles on land as few as possible, encouraging public transport, optimizing the motorized vehicles and promoting non-motorized transport: walking, cycling, using skateboards…
  2. Sustainable waste management, recycling plastics, paper and organics. At the departure area and the arrival area you will find yellow containers for the plastic packaging and cups, blue containers for paper, and brown containers for organics. At the food and drink supply during the crossing, all swimmers will get a recyclable cup which they must use so the Neda el Món staff will refill it each time. Swimmers must keep that cup.

Obviously, in order to achieve the most sustainable possible event, we need the collaboration of all swim addicts. Altogether we will do it!

Medes 2022: for the cardiovascular diseases

3/20/2022

maratotv3

As you, swim addicts, all know, for the last 13 years Neda el Món has given 100% of the Neda el Món Illes Medes by ZOGGS benefits to the television and radio programme of the TV3 and Catalunya Radio Marathon. The 31st edition of the TV3 Marathon will be held on December 18th 2022 and will be dedicated to cardiovascular diseases. In developed countries, cardiovascular diseases are the main death cause, and they are cause of death of 32% of the total world population. Diseases which involve heart and blood vessels are chronic. This means that the patients’ quality of life is directly affected, and the disease generates dependency, often  complications, and a huge amount of healthcare and socioeconomic costs. Altogether it has become a public health concern.

Since 1992, when the first edition of the solidarity program took place, TV3 and Catalunya Radio have collected nearly 225 million Euros. Since 2009, Neda el Món and its swim addicts provided 23.415 Euros. Solidarity mustn’t stop! In May, let’s enjoy and swim for the TV3 Marathon; let’s swim for the cardiovascular diseases!

February the 4th is the last day to register with reduced price to the 13th Neda el Món Illes Medes per la Marató de TV3 by ZOGGS. This crossing is a unique and very special open waters event. Very special for two reasons: because it is the only solidarity open waters event from Catalonia which destinates 100% of the benefits to the TV3 Marathon, and because it takes place at the Medes Islands Natural Park, a superlative natural environment.

From this year 2022 onwards, Neda el Món is going to transform this open waters competition into a great event: You will be able to choose the length of the crossing according to your swimming possibilities, there will be a crossing for kids, there will be an attendance briefing, the best marks will be displayed, music, DJ, entertainments for the kiddies, a meet-and-greet with the best swimmers, and we will finish with a paella.

Here you have all the info.
