SUMMARY:Open Water Swimming - Long Swim at Lydd
DESCRIPTION:Open Water Swimming\nWith three distances available\, this will be a first opportunity for many to swim a decent distance without waves\, seawater and tides/current in this corner of the world\, in the very pleasant Lake1 at Action Watersports. 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

SUMMARY:The Lough Cutra Castle Triathlon
DESCRIPTION:The Lough Cutra Castle Triathlon\nThis first race of the season sets the scene for a competitive and fun series\, hosted within the beautiful grounds and surrounding area of stunning South Galway. What’s more\, the race coincides with a Bank Holiday in the UK and it is also the first weekend of the UK school half term\, making it an ideal break for sporty families. \nAll of the races at Lough Cutra Castle kick-off by launching into an open-water swim in the lake\, transitioning into a bike route which circumnavigates Lough Cutra itself. The half iron gauntlet cycle takes in the beautiful Burren national park. The event offers not only a chance to race but a festival atmosphere with live music\, dancing\, children’s entertainment\, retailers and food. \nAbout Lough Cutra Castle\nThe countryside surrounding Lough Cutra Castle contains evidence of a history dating back to the Irish-Celtic mythology of the Tuatha Dé Danaan. \nOld churches\, cells and monasteries are prolific in the area\, with some of the islands on the lake containing the remnants of stone altars. \nThe history of the actual estate can be traced back as far as 866 A.D. when the ruined church of Beagh was sacked by the Danes and war raged through the district for nearly 1\,000 years. \nThe Castle itself was built during the Gothic revival period and is idyllically situated overlooking the Estate’s 1\,000 acre lake (the largest privately owned lake in Europe)\, home to the open-water swim of the Lough Cutra Castle Triathlon.

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. The Edinburgh Marathon has sold out every year since 2008 and is the second largest marathon in the UK\, behind only London. \nDetails \nSunday 27th May 2018\, 10am\nPrice: £54.00/£56.00\nAge: 18 years or over\nStart: Potterow\, EH8 9AL\nFinish: Pinkie Playing Fields\, EH21 7HA \nMarathon Route \nStarting on Potterrow in the grounds of one of the oldest Universities in the world\, this incredible city centre start takes you through the very heart of Edinburgh. As you pass Greyfriars Bobby on your left\, you also take in the National Museum of Scotland on your right\, before heading over the High Street and down The Mound. Don’t be surprised if you see a few shoppers stop and cheer as you then run past the Scottish National Gallery and into Princes Street Gardens\, with the iconic Edinburgh Castle as your backdrop.\nThe route then takes in the ‘Gothic Rocket’\, otherwise known as the Scott Monument\, as it meanders down the historic Royal Mile\, heading towards and past the somewhat controversial Scottish Parliament building. Here you can look up and take in the spectacular Arthurs Seat & Salisbury Crags\, as well as the Palace of Holyrood\, before departing the Royal Park and heading east towards the coast. \nAs you reach Musselburgh\, you’ll run past the oldest golf course in the world\, where it’s documented that golf has been played as early as 1672\, before heading further East on the flat to Gosford House\, an imposing neo-classical mansion which was one of the last great architectural commissions of the celebrated Scots architect\, Robert Adam. As you turn and head back along the coast\, you’ll see the beautiful finish line ahead\, one of the greatest sights for any marathon runner! \nWith a descent of almost 90 metres to near sea level\, we believe that this is the fastest marathon route in the world. \nRules & Regulations

SUMMARY:Bhutan's Thunder Dragon Marathon 2018
DESCRIPTION:Thunder Dragon Marathon in Bhutan\nBhutan or Druk Yul (the land of the Thunder Dragon) as it is known in Bhutanese\, is mystical\, enchanting and like nowhere you have ever been. This tiny Himalayan kingdom nestling between Tibet and India is a country of raw natural beauty and dramatic landscapes that range from sub-tropical plains to steep mountains and valleys.  \nRegularly voted one of the world’s top travel destinations\, Bhutan still remains accessible only to the privileged few. The Thunder Dragon Marathon is your chance to see the country at ground level\, to immerse yourself in its unique culture and enjoy an unforgettable running and travel experience.  \nDistance\nThe Thunder Dragon Marathon features a Full Marathon – 42.195km / 26.2m and a Half Marathon – 21.1km / 13.1m \nRoute\nFrom the start at Zhiwa Ling\, the first few kilometres are downhill on the road before crossing a metal bridge swing bridge festooned in prayer flags. It then follows the Paro Chu River downstream the tributary of the Wang Chu\, where runners are at 2200m altitude.  \nThe route is undulating along the Wang Chu tributary – climbing gradually above the latticework of rice paddies up stream on one side of the river before crossing a bridge and returning down the other side on a gentle descent.  \nArriving back on the road near Paro the half marathon is reached and the runners in the 21.1km will stop – spectators will be brought to the half marathon point to see the finish then both spectators and half marathon runners will return by bus to the start area at Zhiwa Ling to see the full marathon runners finish.  \nThe Marathon will then climb steadily for 4km up the side of a valley passing above Paro Dzong then up to Zueray Dzong\, the highest point of the race (2530m).  \nFrom here you start to drop to the valley passing by the luxury Uma Resort (2413m).\nDropping sharply back to the river\, the route crosses the ornate Paro Bridge in front of Paro Dzong. From here the route passes to the South of the town before rising up on the road for 3km to 2\,400m\, followed by a short climb on a wide track before picking up forest trails along a line of Chortens festooned with prayer flags.  \nA short but steep climb at 30km on road takes you onto forest trail around a valley spur before dropping back to the valley. The final 10km are along an undulating dirt road through villages before dropping steeply on road with incredible views of the Tigers Nest as you approach the finish line back at Zhiwa Ling. \nThe first half of the race is easier than the second half with long sections of flat to undulating running on the road and gravel trails of the river banks. This makes the 21km suitable for all runners and run/walkers regardless of pace as there is no cut off time. \nStart/Finish\nThe Marathon and Half Marathon start at the 5 Star Zhiwa Ling Hotel in Paro. At the start\, the races are blessed by the local Monks to bring good luck and a safe race.  \nAt the 21.1km of the Marathon course\, the Half Marathon finishes along the Wang Chu Tributary. Spectators and Half Marathon Runners will be transported back to the start area at Zhiwa Ling.  \nThe Marathon finishes back at Zhiwa Ling. \nAll Runners will recieve a medal after crossing the finish line and refreshments will be available. \nStations\nThere will be water stations at approximately every 4km along the routes. Water will be served in bottles. Some stations will also server energy drinks and bananas. Gels will be available at the 30km point. \nTiming\nFinal details about the timing will be announced in your participant guide. The Thunder Dragon Marathon and Half Marathon will be manually timed.  \nThe cut off time for the Marathon is 8 hours but has some flexibility depending upon the weather conditions. There is no cut off time for the Half Marathon. All Runners who do not achieve the cut off will be picked up and driven to the finish line. \nRoute Logistics\nKilometre signs are places every 5km along the route. Directional signs are placed frequently and tape is used to clearly direct Runners along any unmarked paths. \nAn extensive team of local Bhutanese Marshalls will be at key points along the course to give directions and ensure your safety. \nPlease note that some sections of the Marathon and Half Marathon Routes are run on roads which are not closed to traffic. Although traffic is not heavy\, take care and look out for vehicles.
