About Neil Macaskill
Hi! I have always loved the water and swimming. Be it in the pool, waterpolo, in the sea. More recently in my swimming experience I have taken part in some open water swims with Madswimmer and other groups, and now recently discovering ice swimming through IISA. This seems fititing as I have always felt an affinity for the cold. I completed my first offical event in July 2024 and now I want more! My goal is to progress in both open water swims and ice swims and work on my endurance and times.
