LongSwim1: 1900m\, 2: 3800m and 3: 5700m. \nOn the Sunday of Marshman weekend\, we have three Long Swim events. Perhaps you will be supporting somebody at the half-iron event and want something to do while they are out on the bike. Or perhaps you just fancy a decent swim without the waves or salty water or the 25 metre turnarounds or just without all that cycling and running round the countryside. \nWell now we have three swim distances for you on Marshman Sunday in the fabulous lake: 1.9km\, 3.8km and 5.7km. These will set off after the half-iron athletes have left transition\, and will consist of 1\, 2 or 3 laps of the half-iron-distance “M”-shaped course in the lake. Of course\, 1.9km is the same distance as those athletes will swim; 3.8km is the full ironman-distance swim\, for those who don’t know; and some would refer to 5.7km as a half-marathon or more. \nCome on in\, the water’s lovely. It’s the same entry price for any distance.\nThe event takes place in the pleasant water of Action Watersports’ Lake 1\, Dengemarsh Road\, Lydd\, Kent TN29 9JH \nThe 1\,900m course in the lake is an “M” shape\, where you swim up the right-hand-side\, turn sharp left at the right-end buoy\, come back to the middle of the lake\, make a sharp right turn back to the far-left buoy where you make a final sharp left and swim back down the right side to the start. Those swimming the 3\,800m event will do that a second time\, and those swimming the epic 5.7k will do it a third time. \nThe lake is not deep\, so it warms up quite quickly in a period of reasonable weather. Wetsuits will be compulsory. \nDetails \nEntry in advance: £18. \nEntry on the day: will be available subject to capacity\, £18\, cash only at registration please. You could fill in our postal form and bring it along\, which is easier for you and us. \nRace pack: We don’t send out a race pack in the post\, everything is handled at registration on the day. No worries. \nClick to view site plan and swim routes \nRefunds\, Cancellations and Transfers policy\nIf YOU have to cancel:\nUp to 6 weeks before the event – Full refund or transfer to the same event next year or a race credit for a similar Velocity Events’ event. \nUp to 2 weeks before the event – Transfer to the same event next year or a race credit for a similar Velocity Events’ event. \nLess than 2 weeks’ notice\, sorry. \nIf WE have to cancel the event:\nIf a race has to be cancelled for reasons beyond our control\, such as but not limited to safety\, harsh weather\, civil disturbance\, road closure or others\, a revised date may be fixed if this is possible. You will be offered a free transfer to that date if acceptable\, or the same event in the following year or a race credit for a similar Velocity Events event. We cannot be held responsible for any other losses incurred. Notice will be given via email as soon as we know that cancellation is unavoidable. \nIf we have to modify the event:\nOccasionally\, for reasons including but not limited to safety\, road closure\, deep water\, cold or unsuitable weather\, civil disturbance or anything else beyond our reasonable control\, an event has to be modified. We do our best to keep to the expected race format but sometimes an event has to be reorganised at the last minute. \nFor example in cold weather (as defined in BTF* Rules)\, a triathlon swim leg may be shortened or changed to a run; in flood conditions or excessive winds\, a cycle leg could be cancelled. This is regrettable but in all such cases\, if the race starts\, if you choose not to attend\, you will be classed as a ‘DNS’ (did not start) and a refund\, transfer or credit will not be given. \n*BTF: British Triathlon Federation URL:https://raceconnections.com/event/open-water-swimming-long-swim-lydd/ LOCATION:Action Watersports\, Dengemarsh Road\, Lydd\, Kent\, TN29 9JH\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Swimming ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://raceconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Open-Water-Swimming-Long-Swim-at-Lydd-Race-Connections.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Velocity Events":MAILTO:velocitytrievents@outlook.com GEO:50.9291429;0.9157475 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Action Watersports Dengemarsh Road Lydd Kent TN29 9JH United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Dengemarsh Road\, Lydd:geo:0.9157475,50.9291429 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180526 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20180528 DTSTAMP:20260512T051603 CREATED:20180327T030104Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180327T030104Z UID:10004680-1527292800-1527465599@raceconnections.com SUMMARY:The Edinburgh Marathon Festival 2018 DESCRIPTION:Edinburgh Marathon Festival\nFast & flat\, this course was voted the fastest marathon in the UK by Runners World\, ideal if it’s your first marathon or you are looking for a PB.

It provides a unique opportunity to swim one of the most famous and beautiful stretches of open water in the world\, at what we believe is the most beautiful time of the day\, dawn. A key feature of the event is that you arrive in darkness and walk the 1/4 of a mile to the start into the sunrise\, led by the torch carrier. \nHenley Classic Wave Options\nThe Henley Classic swim has several wave options to choose from. \nSwimming on the Henley Regatta course is a privilege and we are very grateful for the support we receive. In return we have to be clear of the river by 0630 so it is important that you select the correct wave based on your anticipated swim time. \nPlease remember that it is an upstream swim so be realistic with your time and err on the side of caution – we really don’t want to stop anyone before they complete the course. \n0430 WAVE 1 (Sporting & Juniors) \nSelect this wave if you: \nwish to swim at leisure or alongside friends OR\nyou are a junior swimmer (age 14-17) or are accompanying a junior swimmer(s) \n0450 WAVE 2 \nSelect this wave if you comfortably average between 2 mins and 2 mins 30 secs per 100m during a distance swim. \n0510 WAVE 3 \nSelect this wave if you comfortably average between 1 min 45 secs and 2 mins per 100m during a distance swim. \n0530 WAVE 4 (Performance) \nSelect this wave if you wish to race hard (likely to be in the top 100 swimmers) and you comfortably average under 1 min 45 secs per 100m during a distance swim. \nWave times are provisional and may be subject to change \nTeams – There is one team competition. A team can be made up of any combination of male or female swimmers (but not elite) and any number. The four fastest times will qualify for the competition. Create or join a team during the entry process. \nEvent Location\nThe Henley Classic is hosted at Temple Island Meadows\, which is just ¾ mile from Henley town centre. Parking is available at the event venue. \nSwim Course\nThe course is a unique\, straight line\, point-to point-swim (ie no turns) and takes advantage of the boomed course of the Henley Royal Regatta. The swim is upstream\, the strength of the stream varies from year-to-year\, ensuring that no two events are the same. \nVenue Facilities\nParking is available at the venue\nToilets and changing facilities will be provided\nHot & cold drinks & snacks will be available at the main event area \nCamping\nCamping is available in Glebe campsite\, with on-site facilities including toilets and showers. This is just a short walk to the main event area and is ¾ mile from Henley town centre. Details and prices to follow. \nHenley Classic Saturday Supper\nThere will be a supper available for campers and anyone staying locally. Details and prices to follow. \nSaturday Evening Registrations\nThe venue will be open on Saturday afternoon from 2pm. Anyone who would like to register for the event early\, to save time on the Sunday morning can register between 4pm and 6pm on the Saturday.\n\nWater Temperature\nThe water temperature at the Classic depends upon both the outside temperature and the quantity of rainfall in the days and weeks running up to the event. It is therefore very difficult to predict. \nBased on previous years\, at the beginning of July\, we would expect the water to be between 17 and 19 degrees centigrade. \nEntry Fee: Juniors (14-17) £39 / Adults (18+ on race day) £49 URL:https://raceconnections.com/event/henley-classic-swim/ LOCATION:Henley Royal Regatta\, Bridge Hart St\, Henley-on-Thames\, London\, RG9 2LY\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Swimming ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://raceconnections.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/The-Henley-Classic-Swim-Events-Race-Connections-.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Henley Swim":MAILTO:Enquiries@henleyswim.com GEO:51.5374288;-0.9009325 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Henley Royal Regatta Bridge Hart St Henley-on-Thames London RG9 2LY United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Bridge Hart St\, Henley-on-Thames:geo:-0.9009325,51.5374288 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180707 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20180708 DTSTAMP:20260512T051603 CREATED:20180409T061318Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180409T061318Z UID:10004687-1530921600-1531007999@raceconnections.com SUMMARY:Chase Open Water Big Swim DESCRIPTION:Open Water Big Swim UK\nThe Chase Open Water Big Swim at Chasewater Country Park is a swimming event with three swim distance options- 1.6k / 3.2k / 5k. \nThe Big Swim requires all 5k swimmers to be able to complete within 3hrs \nBeginners please come and have a go\, we will help and guide you though those first steps into OWS.

It covers a beautiful stretch of the Thames and has become one of open water swimming’s most prestigious marathon swims. The swim is split into 4 sections. Swimmers will be required to exit the water at the 3 locks – Hambledon at 4k\, Hurley at 10k and Temple at 11.8k – where food and drink will be available. \nWhere does the swim start and finish?\nIn 2018 the Thames Marathon 14km swim will start at The Leander club\, Henley and finish at Higginson Park\, Marlow. \nWhere should I park for the event?\nThe official car parking will be in Henley\, at Wargrave Meadows\, Wargrave Rd. From here you will take the short walk to the start venue at Leander club. After you have finished your swim and had some food and collected your finisher medal\, we will transport you back to Henley. Supporters will be able to pay on the day to use the coach service. \nIs there other parking in Henley?\nYes\, there are plenty of public car parks in Henley and they are free on Sundays. The return coach will only drop off at the official car park. \nThames Marathon – Long Distance Swimming Event\nHow will my bag get to the end?\nWe will transport one small bag (3-4kg) for each swimmer. We will tag your bag for identification purposes\, and have it waiting for you at the finish area. We try and be careful but accidents do happen -please don’t use your best bag as we can’t be held responsible for any damage suffered in transit. \nCan I swim in a team with a group of friends?\nAbsolutely\, in fact we encourage it. The more people who swim together and look out for each other\, the safer the event is. If you wish to swim with friends\, please make sure that you all enter the same wave. \nWill I be able to wear a tow float?\nIn 2018 all swimmers will be required to use a tow float and are advised to get used to swimming with one before the event. Selkie Swim Co have some available. \nHow will you ensure that those who want to do solo swims are able to do so safely?\nWe have a fully approved safety plan that ensures coverage across the full course throughout the event. In addition ALL swimmers will be required to use a tow-float at the 2018 event. \nCan I swim non – wetsuit?\nWe do have a small number of non-wetsuit places available. . This is to minimise the risk to our safety plan. Wetsuits are important for retaining heat and providing buoyancy. If you would like a non-wetsuit place your application will be assessed by the events team for approval. Our decision is final on wetsuits and no discussion can be entered into. We advise swimmers to be prepared to wear a wetsuit if asked\, on the day. \nNon-wetsuit places have now been allocated for 2018 and a waiting list is in operation \nHow many feed stops will there be ?\nThere will be 3 feed stops in 2018 – one at each lock: Hambleden (4km)\, Hurley (10km) and Temple (11.8km) \nWhat food will be available at the feed stops?\nWe will provide a bit of everything\, including bananas\, energy bars\, energy drinks\, water\, some chocolate\, sweets\, and some salty snacks. A couple of the stops will also have hot drinks. \nHow will the start work?\nThe pink wave\, for faster swimmers that wish to race against the clock\, will go off first. The remaining waves will go off at 20 minute intervals (timetable subject to change). \nHow should I choose which wave to enter?\nFaster swimmers that wish to swim against the clock\, and have a 1500m pool time of 25 minutes or less should select the pink wave. \nOther swimmers should select either the blue or the green wave. In 2018 both of these waves will be of mixed ability. If you wish to swim with a group\, make sure you all select the same wave. The BLUE WAVE is now SOLD OUT. If you are not a pink wave swimmer\, please select the green wave. \nThe first (pink) wave will set off at 7am\, with approximately 20 minutes in between the waves. These timings are provisional and are subject to change. \nWe would recommend that if you are not presently able to complete a 1500m swim in under 45mins it might be as well to target a shorter event and then build for the 2019 Thames Marathon. \nAre there toilets on the course?\nThere are toilets at the start at Leander club\, and at the finish at Higginson Park. We are aiming to have a toilet stop at one of the food stations as well. \nCan supporters walk the route?\nThe route is walkable\, by following The Thames Path. Download the route here – Thames Marathon Walking Route. \nIt is also possible to cycle the route\, although there are a large number of kissing style gates where you may have to lift your bikes to get through. \nCan I talk to fellow swimmers in advance of the event?\nDefinitely\, we have set up Henley Swim Chatter as a facebook forum\, where you are able to discuss anything with fellow swimmers from nutrition and training tips to transport to the event on the day. There is also a facebook event page with all the latest information.

The Chestnut Appeal hope that soon they can announce the arrival of a second Scanner in the East of the region and it is their aim and with the support of the public to install others in Torbay and Truro as and when funds allow. \nThe St Michaels Mount swim will be fully supported by the team from Event Water Safety. Event Water Safety provide the necessary expertise and craft and have covered all the Chestnut Appeal’s charity swims since 2011. EWS provide safety at some of the UK’s biggest swims including the Dart 10k and Bournemouth Pier to Pier. \nRegistration for the swim is £35. Your entry fee covers the cost of organising the event\, but it’s the money you raise that helps Prostate Cancer patients and their families\, so we ask all our St Michaels Mount Swimmers set themselves a Sponsorship target of at least £75.\nThis will be our fifth swim around the mount and it’s a swim that has helped us raise our profile in Cornwall and has seen us attract new supporters. So if you fancy a new challenge and at the same time raise money to help men with prostate cancer in the region then why not register today. \nEntry to the St Michaels Mount Swim includes; a medal on completion of the swim\, full water safety support from Event Water Safety\, an event swim cap\, water and an end of swim pasty. \nThe Chestnut Appeal for Prostate Cancer is a charity that supports men with Prostate Cancer and their families across Devon and Cornwall. \nSt. Michaels Mount\, home to the St. Aubyn family is managed by the National Trust and a beautiful place to visit. At low tide\, it is possible to walk across the causeway to the mount.

Any bike that is considered unsafe or hazardous to the rider or other competitors will not be allowed into transition. All handlebar ends must be plugged. Remember to check there are no punctures or flats the day before the race and before leaving for the event and ensure your helmet is securely fitting. \nRace Briefing\nYou must be changed and ready for your swim race briefing in front of transition at the specified time. You will have a separate briefing by the Swim Director on poolside. \nTransition Area\nThe transition area is located to the rear of the swimming pool in the car park (this will be closed for oncoming cars). \nNB: There will be a dry and warm transition area for clothing weather dependent. \nSwim Section\nAccording to British Triathlon rules the pool must be tested regularly for water quality. The final test will be done prior to the event and results will be posted up at registration. In the unfortunate event of chlorine levels being above the appropriate limit for safe swimming in this section of the event this discipline will be abandoned in favour of a duathlon. We regret that in this case no refunds can be offered. Historically all previous water tests have been well below these limits. \nThe temperature of the pool will be taken one hour before the event and will also be posted up at registration. If the temperature of the pool exceeds the appropriate level then the distances will be reduced. \nBike Course (1 Lap)\nThe bike course is a total of 12.2 miles (20.3K) following an undulating route leaving the swimming pool taking a right hand turn onto Dog Row and then joining the Quay.

This is when a competitor gains an advantage by cycling in the slip-stream of the cyclist in front. Competitors should ride a minimum of 10m behind the cyclist in front\, except when overtaking. If overtaking is not completed within 15 seconds the overtaking cyclist must drop back. Static marshals will check that all competitors comply with the drafting rule. \nIn order to monitor drafting our bike director will tour the bike route in an estate car. The legal distance you should be behind the rider in front is approximately the length of an estate car. Additionally there will be static marshals on course monitoring drafting. \nTransition (T2)\nYou will safely dismount your bike before the dismount line and wheel your bike into T2. Here you will rack your bike\, remove your helmet and change into your running gear\, ensuring your race number is visible at the front. \nRun routes \nSprint distance\nThe running route is 3.2 miles (5.2K) on a fairly course on pathways following a circular route from the sports centre. Out of transition runners then proceed adjacent to the A182 on a pathway for 1.13 miles. \nYou the turn left on the B1260 (Gillas Lane W) for 0.50 miles. At the roundabout you then turn left onto the B1284 (North Rd) for 1.3 miles. You then turn left passed the school onto the Quay\, Dog Row and then Park View heading back towards the Sports Centre. \nNovice distance (1 lap)\nThe running route is 1.2 miles (1.9K) on a flat course on pathways following a route from the sports centre. Out of transition runners then proceed adjacent to the A182 on a pathway for ½ a mile. You then head down into the park turning left. At the bottom of the bank you stay on the path heading left. Running through the park sticking to the path you are heading back towards the sports centre. At 1 mile you head up the bank and finish under the gantry at the front of the sports centre. \nRefreshments Stations\nThere will be 2 refreshments stations on course where fluid will be available: \nRefreshments station 1: At the 1 mile point on the run \nYou may bring additional filled bike bottles which will be stored at this refreshment station for a quick change of bottle during your bike section. You should place this bottle in the labelled box in transition when you rack your bike. A marshal will transport the box of bottles to the refreshments station ready for your bike section. This bottle should be easily recognisable. Please note we cannot guarantee the safety or security of your bottle. Your empties will be taken back to transition for collection at the end of your race. \nRefreshments station 2: At the Finish. Medical supplies will be available here too. \nCut-off Times\nAs it is our intention to encourage all participants to complete their challenge there are no enforced cut off times for the event. However\, after the following times the medical director\, referee and safety officer will assess the ability of the competitor to complete the course and it may be necessary to remove the competitor in the interests of their health and safety and for the sanity of our marshals. \nPrize Presentations\nPrize giving will take place at the Finish area in front of the pavilion in the afternoon once most competitors have completed their event\, which is expected to be about 11.00m.

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.
