Four Bahraini swimmers are gearing up for the epic Bahrain Swim Challenge — a 170KM journey around the island, happening on April 23, 2025. Among them is Abdulla Atiya, the President of the Bahrain Swimming Federation and a Guinness World Record holder. He made headlines when he ran the ADNOC Abu Dhabi Marathon in full military gear, finishing in 3:40:07 — breaking a world record that had stood since 2009! Joining him in the water is Fatima AlMahmeed, a board member of the federation, who’s also part of this exciting challenge. Both swimmers are leading the charge as Bahrain continues to push limits in sports. To watch the livestream of the swimming challenge click here
