Each team must help each other through the terrain to beat the course and complete the entire course together. Unlike triathlon there are no transitions or changes of equipment allowed. \nThe environmental challenge presented by plastic is well documented. What is less clear is what we can do as individuals to tackle this problem. By combining our voices and supporting better recycling infrastructure and greater awareness among young people we are actively building a better future. \nThe Bali Hope SwimRun will create a new global family among the participants and\, combined with the best hospitality available\, provide a life-changing experience for everyone involved. \nWe ask participants to commit to fundraising US$2\,000 for our charity partners and joining the entire 5 day experience. \nDISTANCES\n17 km run\, 2.5 km swim \nOur 5 days on Lembongan\nA shared team experience and deep connection to the impact we are making is important to us.

Many of our team members will travel to Bali from Europe or North America and it is important to acclimatise before the SwimRun. \nCan I bring a partner and/or children?\nOf course. Partners and children are most welcome. In 2018 on our ultra marathon we had 4 young people with us\, including one young adult who joined our support crew. Witnessing a team of adults from around the world making change happen for a disadvantaged community can only be a positive experience. \nCan I join the SwimRun but not the rest of the week? \nUnfortunately not. The integrity of our SwimRun team\, our shared experience and our itinerary means this is not possible. \nThe SwimRun \nWhat is your advice if I have never joining a SwimRun before?\nThe route is designed to be challenging but accessible for anyone with a decent level of fitness. We do recommend researching SwimRun and the standard equipment required. \nWhat level of support do you provide?\nParticipant safety on this ocean & road race is our key priority. With this in mind we have a highly-experienced health and safety director\, emergency medical back-up\, and trained first aiders in both fixed and mobile-aid stations. \nWhat insurance do I need? \nEvery participant will need insurance covering endurance sports. \nFundraising \nWhat is your advice on fundraising?\nCritical factors on successful fundraising include starting early to raise awareness of what you are doing\, the impact it will make and the training commitment required\, and then follow this up with personal messages to friends\, family and your broader network. We believe US$2\,000 is very achievable and together we can make a real impact in reducing plastic pollution.

Staged in the deep winter and high summer months\, each edition of the race will visit iconic landmarks steeped in SAS folklore and following in the footsteps of a history of young men in search of something out of the ordinary. Forged on memories and nostalgia for our past endeavours and struggles as we pitted ourselves against one of the world’s great endurance challenges\, we could think of no finer culmination than to stage the finish at the iconic old red phone box via Pen y Fan summit\, the highest mountain in the Brecon Beacons range\, the outline of which is engraved onto the heart of every SAS man.For our DS team it was always far more than a challenge or test\, it was a pilgrimage and the adventure of a life time and we’re honoured and humbled to be able to share a small part of our past with those who take on the Blade Runner Ultra marathon challenge. \nAll runners who complete the course by passing through each RV point and making time cuts will be presented with a special cloth patch by one of our former SAS staff at the finish line. Category champion prizes will be provided by Paramo and our other sponsors as well as a framed route map featuring original SAS insignia. \nCATEGORIES\nThe Blade Runner Ultra Series will be a Clean Fatigue category only with no Load Bearing element. There will be Men’s and Ladies fields in the following age categories. \nROUTE INFORMATION & RV PROTOCOL\nThe Bladerunner route follows a sequence of forestry trails\, hill paths and old Roman roads\, negotiating 2200m of elevation gain over the 50 km course. Along the route you will pass through a series of DS manned rendezvous points where you will be required to log in to have your name and race number recorded and your suitability to continue assessed. RV points will be stocked with hot food and drinks\, with robust medical support and off-road vehicle rescue support. Owed to the very real risk of adverse weather conditions and the requirement to cover ground in darkness for at least two hours during the winter edition\, the opening part of the course will be illuminated with military grade cyalumes to provide enhanced route marking. \nThe Blade Runner route map is available for download and print on this page along with GPX files for your GPS device. \nBLADE RUNNER ULTRA START & FINISH\nThe de-serviced old red phone box has marked the start and finish points of the Fan Dance for nearly sixty years of SAS Selection. It has now become an iconic landmark steeped in the finest history and tradition of our Special Forces. The Blade Runner ultra-marathon will also launch from the very same location and be a welcome site at the end of the race. \nTHE BATTLE FOR JACOB’S LADDER\nThe legendary climb up Jacob’s Ladder is synonymous with SAS Selection and can be especially challenging to negotiate when covered in snow and ice. The rocky and step like upper reaches of this southern face of Pen y Fan is steep enough to require hand and foot placements to reach the summit. Jacob’s Ladder will be one of the most well-known and famous segments of the Blade Runner course\, rivalled by a number of other equally fearsome climbs you will have to negotiate. \nNIGHT RUNNING\nThe early part of the Winter Edition Blade Runner course will be run in darkness so head troches will be required. Head torches will be required unless the moon state is high with clear skies. Past editions of our Fan Dance night trail run have been blessed with strong ambient light conditions\, increased further by the snow on the ground so there’s always a chance absorbing the spectacular scenery by moonlight. \nBLADE RUNNER LEAGUE TABLES\nBlade Runner will have a league table for each category recording every edition of the race\, ranking each historical finisher in order of their finish time. The Fan Dance Race has a competitive Clean Fatigue/trail run race league table of its own which can be viewed to assess the competition: League Tables \nGENERAL EVENT INFORMATION \nBASE CAMP\nThe Storey Arms Outdoor centre will function as the event Base Camp\, administration area and Command Centre.

However\, it is important to understand that the event is also about solidarity and\, for a week\, participants will be living in the same conditions that the Saharawis have endured for 43 years. With this in mind\, it is requested that participants visit the camps with an open mind and a flexible attitude. \nTHE FLIGHT\nAn Air Algerie aircraft has been chartered to transport the delegation from Madrid to Tindouf\, leaving on Saturday 23rd February and returning on Saturday 2nd March.\nHowever\, in the event that less than 100 participants register to take the chartered flight it may be necessary to revert to scheduled flights requiring a change of aircraft in Algiers.\nThe schedule won’t be official until AirAlgerie confirmation.\nThe plane will make a technical stop at Orán or Algier\, but normally there’s no need to get out of the plane.\nThe allowed luggage is 15 kilos per traveler. \nVISA\nThe visa is collective and we will take care of it. Don’t forget your passport and make sure about the expire date (must be valid for 6 months ahead of the travel date).

If you do own a pace watch PLEASE wear it to each session and I will provide you with your paces that we will be using after our simple test tomorrow. We meet at the polo ground run track (around the pond) at 7am sharp for a 1 hour session. \nSwim sessions are less than I would like at just two 1 hour sessions per week\, we should swim more than this and we eventually will\, but please attend these two sessions if possible and use the techniques learnt in your own sessions. Just pay your public entry fee at 8am to access the outside MBI pool\, PLEASE bring Fins\, Paddles\, Pull Buoy and kick board if you have them and if you do not PLEASE purchase them as you will not be able to participate in valuable drills without them! Head to the pool as quickly as possible so we can get in and secure a centre section of the pool in what is a public session. \nKelly’s Castle TT on Tuesday nights is both fun and a very valuable session we will meet at the Sri Maha Mariamman Hindu Temple next to Kellies Castle https://goo.gl/maps/8yAqnVkHmaE2 I have agreed parking here for all our participants\, but please kindly make a donation at the box inside the temple to show our appreciation for accepting us! These sessions WILL build speed and develop your threshold power through the season\, I can give you pointers on this\, but the fun bit is that all results will be entered onto a league table to provide end of year results which will result in prizes and awards for the most improved and fasted riders as well as some fun awards as well! The league table will be updated and published after each Tuesday evening session. \nAll other sessions are group runs or bike rides where there is no specific coaching but we will work as a team and improve together sharing experience and advice. \nYou may notice there is a Junior bike skills session which Dave Spence has kindly agreed to run\, this still needs final agreement but will be a great session for bike development and I have some good ideas I can share with Dave to make it both fun and beneficial which it’s bound to be!! \nInterim Sessions \n• Track session – Monday 7am (Polo ground or 200m track TBC) \n• Swim set – Tuesdays 8am (MBI public pool) \n• Kelly’s castle Cycling TT – Tuesdays 6pm (Sri Maha Mariamman Temple) \n• Run Easy – Wednesday 7am (Polo grounds park) \n• Bike group – Thursday 6.30am (Tambun McDonalds) \n• Swim set – Friday 8am (MBI public pool) \n• Long Bike ride – Saturday 7am (Public Bank Simpang Pulai) \n• Junior Bike skills – Saturday 5.30pm (location TBC) \n• Long Easy Run – Sunday 7am (Meeting point TBC) \n \n  URL:https://raceconnections.com/event/free-triathlon-training-in-ipoh-malaysia/2019-03-04/ LOCATION:Polo Ground\, Ipoh\, Perak\, Malaysia CATEGORIES:Aquathlon,Children (up to 12),Cycling,Duathlon,Junior (13-19),Running,Swimming,Trail Triathlon,Triathlon ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://raceconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Perak-Triathlon-Association.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Live More Events":MAILTO:info@livemoreevents.com GEO:4.597479;101.090106 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Kuala_Lumpur:20190305T070000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Kuala_Lumpur:20190305T090000 DTSTAMP:20260412T001532 CREATED:20190303T123107Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190304T011344Z UID:10004833-1551769200-1551776400@raceconnections.com SUMMARY:Free Triathlon Training in Ipoh Malaysia DESCRIPTION:Ipoh\, Perak\, Malaysia is going to have two great international athletes leading workshops and training camps for anyone interested in Triathlon.  Swimming Cycling and Running. \n  \nHi Everyone \nBelow is you’ll find the weekly training structure for our group and others that are bound to join.
