Nakheel is really talking the talk, walking the walk… swimming the swim?
Palm Jumeirah has collaborated with Touch, an inclusive talent agency representing experts and leaders across multiple industries, to attempt to break a new record for the first open-water swim around the island.
Alex Millington, the CrossFit athlete who previously competed at the UAE Government Games 2020 and 2021 will undertake a historic swim starting at sunrise, where he will swim around Palm Jumeirah’s crescent and in the open waters of the Arabian Gulf, from one side of the island to the other.
The swim will be the first to be conducted outside the outer breakwater of the island, nothing like a global record to keep you inspired!
