A classic distance in the world of open-water swimming events, the one-mile swim covers one full lap (1.6K) of the Serpentine.

If you want to push yourself a bit further, and are more experienced in outdoor swimming, then take on two miles (2 laps) and enjoy the atmosphere as you go.

You must be 16 or over for the 2 mile swim.
