Swim Serpentine London
2017-09-16 | Hyde Park, London, United Kingdom
Entries are now open for the new events that have been added to Swim Serpentine, the open water swimming festival that will return to Hyde Park on Saturday 16 September 2017.
Swimmers now have the choice of a half-mile and two-mile swim, in addition to the hugely popular one-mile mass-participation swim which returns for the second year of the event.
In addition, the organisers have created the Swim Serpentine Super Six challenge, which offers the chance for swimmers to take on the challenge of swimming a total of six miles in five different races during the day.
“We have added these new events to the Swim Serpentine programme so that swimmers of all ages and abilities can enjoy open water swimming in the spectacular setting of the Serpentine,” said Hugh Brasher, Event Director. “In 2017, we look forward to welcoming swimmers from the age of 12 in the new half mile event and the very experienced open water swimmers who take on the Swim Serpentine Super Six challenge.
“With thousands of swimmers participating in the mass participation one mile events plus the great free family festival around the lake, it’s going to be a fantastic day.”
The new events are:

Half mile: entry fee £25.00 (minimum age 12 on 16 September 2017)
Two miles: entry fee £49.00 (minimum age 16)
Super Six: entry fee £150.00 (minimum age 18)

The entry fee for the one mile event is £39.00 and the minimum age for entry is 16 on the day.
Up to 6,000 swimmers will be accepted for the one-mile mass-participation event. Every swimmer will be able to choose a specific start wave which go off at regular intervals during the day. Wetsuits or tow floats are compulsory in all events. Both wetsuit and tow-float hire will be available beforehand and at the Serpentine on the day.
Online Entry
Entering Swim Serpentine
Online entry for all events at Swim Serpentine is now open. Entry is on a first come, first served basis so enter now to avoid disappointment.
Entries for all events close at 17:00 on Thursday 27 July 2017.
Half-Mile Swim
This distance is an ideal entry level open water swim. Taking in half a lap of the Serpentine, there is plenty of time to swim this distance at your leisure with a friend, race your mum or dad or just to try out an open water swimming event with an achievable but for some still challenging swim. Numbers are limited for this event, which will be held in the morning of Swim Serpentine, so don’t delay.
Half Mile Entry
Entry costs £25. Entrants must be at least 12 years old on Saturday 16 September 2017.
One-Mile Swim
A one-mile swim is a classic distance in the world of open water swimming events. Swim Serpentine takes place on the same course as the London 2012 Marathon Swimming Olympic event, with one full lap around the Serpentine making up the one-mile swim. This is the most popular of all the swim distances for Swim Serpentine with swimmers taking anything from 20 minutes through to one hour to complete the swim.
One Mile Entry
Entry costs £39. Entrants must be at least 16 years old on Saturday 16 September 2017.
Two-Mile Swim
For those who would like to test themselves with two full (1.6km) laps of the Serpentine. Aimed at more experienced swimmers who have already completed a mile open water swim previously. A challenging two-lap swim set in a beautiful location: what’s not to like?
Two Mile Entry
Entry costs £49. Entrants must be at least 16 years old on Saturday 16 September 2017.
Super Six
Swim six miles with a combination of one-mile and two-mile events during the day. All the ‘Super Sixers’ will start in the same one-mile wave, then how you complete the total distance is up to you. Choose to swim event after event, or take a break before you continue on with your swim.
Don’t underestimate this challenge – swimming for 10km straight is one thing, but the challenge for this swim is that the swimmer must to get out the water between each one or two-mile swim and wait for the next event to start, which makes this a tough challenge for any experienced swimmer. But with a special coloured swim hat for the Super Sixers and very limited spaces available, you’ll be treated like a true ‘Super (Six)’ Hero for the day.
Entry costs £150 and is limited to 60 swimmers. Entrants must be at least 18 years old on Saturday 16 September 2017.
Elite One-Mile Invitational Race
Entry into the Elite One-Mile Race is by invitation only. If you would like to be considered, please email Colin Hill at colin.hill@londonmarathonevents.co.uk
Elite entries are limited to 25 male and 25 female competitors. The minimum criteria from which the swimmers will be selected is 16:10 for the men (1500m time) and 9:00 for the women (800m time) or swimmers with international open water racing experience at FINA or LEN level.
There will also be an Elite Para One-Mile Invitational Race. Para swimmers should have international experience in the pool or triathlon and are selected by the Para elite manager.
Wetsuit & tow-float hire
Wetsuits are optional when the water temperature is over 15 degrees. However, for safety reasons, all swimmers must either wear a wetsuit or use a tow-float for all Swim Serpentine events.
As an official partner of Swim Serpentine, HUUB will provide wetsuits, swimwear and swim accessories to all swimmers looking to hire or purchase equipment for the event. Visit the HUUB Swim Serpentine page for more details.
Choosing your wave
The Swim Serpentine events will comprise a number of waves (groups).
If you enter Swim Serpentine, we will send you an email asking you to choose your wave, so you’ll be able to swim with friends and family if you’d like to. If you do not choose a wave, you will be allocated one according to your predicted finishing time.
Change of address
If you change your address after applying, please email changeofaddress@londonmarathonevents.co.uk with your name, date of birth, telephone number, old address and your new address.
Your address details will then be changed in our system and a confirmation will be emailed to you when this has been done.

About Aspire
Every eight hours, someone in the UK is paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury. A spinal cord injury can happen to anyone at any time, there is no warning, no time to prepare, and no cure for the damage done.
Aspire is a national charity that works with people with spinal cord injuries to create opportunity, independence and choice. By fundraising in the Aspire Night Swim, you could help someone buy a lightweight wheelchair through Aspire Grants.
Your fundraising will also mean that Aspire can visit newly injured patients in hospital to offer support and advise them about our other services such as Aspire Housing, should they need accessible housing. It will also enable our Assistive Technology volunteers to train people, regardless of their level of injury, to use computers and get online.
Aspire ensures that everyone with a spinal cord injury has the opportunity to live an independent and fulfilled life. Aspire receives no statutory support and can only deliver these hugely important services with the help of its generous supporters.

Clarendon Marathon and Half Marathon; Salisbury to Winchester: Running or Walking
Overview:
If you are looking for a marathon which is off road, picturesque and challenging then running the Clarendon is the ultimate. Our route takes you from Salisbury to Winchester along the ancient Clarendon Way with a few extra turns here and there to make up a full 26.2 miles. More than 90% is off road, with the trail following country tracks and paths – many of which have not changed since being travelled by the ancient Kings and Queens of England.
In addition to the full marathon distance, we also have a half marathon event and this year we are also introducing a mini run of just 5 miles. If you want to join us but are not able to run the full course, please feel welcome to get a team of 4 together and run in a relay or enter the mini and run in with us for the last 5 miles.
Our marathon event was first run in 1998. It was founded and organised by Paul Elderkin, a keen runner and member of a local Hash House Harriers Club. In 2012, Paul passed the management of the race over to the Rotary Clubs of Winchester and Salisbury.
The entry fee for 2017 is an inclusive one. All entrants will be given a free medal and a free tshirt when they cross the finish line. Use of the buses will also be included.
Early bird prices for bookings before 1 June are:
£30 for the full marathon (26.2 miles). £35 after 1 June.

Full Marathon
The Full Marathon starts from Wyvern College, Laverstock, Salisbury (SP1 1RE). The run mainly follows the Clarendon Way setting off through the Clarendon Estate and then on through the villages of Pitton, Winterslow and Broughton. Broughton is the midway point where the Half Marathon runners join the course. From here the route takes you through to Houghton and then across the River Test to Kings Somborne, then on up to Farley Mount, down through the woods and eventually on to the finish at Kings’ School, Winchester (SO22 5PN). The route is mostly off-road, is tough and challenging but possibly one of the most scenic races you’ll ever enter.
Registration is open from 7.30am. Runners should allow plenty of time to pick up their race numbers.
The full marathon starts at 10:30am. Marathon runners should aim to reach the half marathon start point in Broughton in less than 2hrs 45mins i.e. by 13:15pm.
There is also an option to make an early start at Wyvern School at 8:00am or 9:30am (instead of 10:30am) if you are planning to walk the route or jog very slowly (please let us know when you book if you require an early start). Participants can only take the early start time if they are very slow and anticipate arriving at Winchester after 3:00pm but no later than 4:00pm. Participants taking the 9:30 start should only do so if they are likely to need more than 5 hours to complete the course. There are no prizes applicable for early starters. If you are a fast runner please do not take the early start as the marshals and the various support teams will not be in place.
Buses are available pre-race and post-race depending on your requirements however please note that there are no pre-race buses available for the early starters. Early starters will need to transport themselves to Laverstoke, run the course to Winchester, then take the post-race bus.
The first runners are expected to arrive at the finish line at Kings School in Winchester at approx 1:15pm. We hope that all the runners (and strollers and walkers) will complete the course by 4.00pm at the very latest.
Relay marathon (x4)
The Relay Marathon follows the same course as the full marathon. It comprises a four-stage relay, each leg being an average of 6.5 miles in length but they are not equal lengths. The first leg is approx 10.5km, second leg is 10.4km, third leg is longest at 12.3km and the fourth leg is the shortest at 9.0 km. The third leg is the most challenging as, in addition to being longer in distance, it also has a greater hill climb in height. The fourth leg is the easiest as it is the shortest and some of it is down hill. The relay marathon starts at 10.30am.
Teams are usually mixed sex (usually 3 males and one female) but we are also encouraging all male and all female teams. There is a prize for the first mixed team, first male team and first female team.
Registration is open from 8.00. Runners should allow plenty of time to pick up their race numbers and their team batton (wrist band). This is to be passed on to the next runner at each transition point.

Gran Fondo Campagnolo Roma 2017
2017-10-06 - 2017-10-08 | Stadio Delle Terme Di Caracalla, Largo delle Vittime del Terrorismo,, Roma, 00153, Italy
Gran Fondo Campagnolo Roma Event
The Gran Fondo Campagnolo Roma has a length of 75 miles with an altitude of 6,643 ft elevation. For well trained riders. Certainly challenging and suitable for those with well trained legs and lungs. For this reason, to make it even more attractive to those who see the bike a means to compete (with others or themselves), the routes are varied and difficult. The route within Rome: Fori Imperiali, Piazza Venezia, Piazza Argentina, Corso Rinascimento, S. Andrea della Valle, via Tomacelli, Largo Goldoni, Via del Corso, Piazza del Popolo, LungoTevere to Via di Porta San Sebastiano. Then, once out of town in the direction of the Castles immortalized by centuries of stories, poems, songs and movies. Ancient villages, evocative, steeped in history and immersed in enchanted landscapes.
Lake Albano, which the Pope’s summer residence oversees, Rocca di Papa, Rocca Priora, Montecompatri are our four challenging timed climbs, with hard, dry features as they say in cycling words, could “be very painful” the muscles already tested by a path not exactly flat, especially in the city section with Roman cobblestones reminiscent of the legendary North European pavé.
The timed hill climbs:
Panoramica (Lake Albano) 2.3 kilometers, with an average gradient of 5.9% and a maximum of 8%.
Murus (Rocca di Papa) 1.1 kilometers with an average gradient of 10.3% and a maximum of 16%.
Rocca Priora – Trofeo Corriere dello Sport 6 kilometres, average gradient of 6.3% and maximum 13%
Rostrum (Montecompatri) 0.720 meters with a wall at an average gradient of 12% and maximum of 18%.
Rome is always near. You ride the hills, touching 800 meters above sea level, the fresh air, the feeling of being on vacation but wanting to race, that makes you want to crank it up. Head down, with hills and slopes and then Pratoni del Vivaro, a landscape straight out of Spaghetti Westerns, the Roman countryside and finally the return to Rome … goodbye to the freshness of the Castelli, hello the heat of the Eternal City.
An innovative gran fondo. Final classifications are awarded and for each category based on timing of the timed climbs with prizes in each category according to the times recorded in the four official hill climbs.
And a wonderful new initiative called Campagnolo Campagnolo Climbing Championship, for those who will go first in the four climbs of the Gran Fondo: Overview of the time trial, the Murus, Rocca Priora – Trofeo Corriere dello Sport and Rostrum who will have the honor of a special mesh.
A ranking for men, women of different categories in order to better represent all competitive, rewarding the most competitive, from the youngest to the oldest, will consecrate the Campagnolo Climbing Champion. And also two links will award the winners in the overall calculation of the 4 climbs and after arrivals you will be able to celebrate the King of Rome and The Queen of Rome. All Campagnolo Climbing Champion will show off their jersies the next year and will be entitled to a place in the front row of the starting grid. And, at the Expo Village, a Roman column “Wall of Fame” will have plates with the names of the winners.
