SWIM
All our events provide a stunning open-water swim opportunity in unique castle lakes.
For Swim Series races you can choose whether or not you wear a wetsuit.
A wetsuit will not only keep you warm, but it may help you swim faster as it provides you with extra buoyancy.
Swimmers will be electronically counted into and out of the water for additional safety.
Bag Drop
If there are items you would like to leave whilst you race, please check them into the bag drop in the event village.
Swim Finish
When swimmers have finished their event, they will be greeted with our team at the new and improved swim finish. Here swimmers will receive their medal, have the selection of tasty food and drink and be greeted (and congratulated) by their supporters.
Water Temperature
Regular water temperature tests are taken in the upcoming months, weeks and during the event. These are shared on venue specific competitor information pages as they go live closer to the event day.
Prize Giving
Swim Series athletes are split into wetsuit/non wetsuit categories for prize giving.
Prizes are awared to top three open and female particialnts.
Please make sure you make your wetsuit/non wetsuit choice known when you register online and when you register on race day. We can then make absolutely sure you’re in the correct category for your chance to be on the podium.
