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.
