- **Event Description**: The Comino SwimRun is back! 

The SwimRun combines short swims and trail running in beautiful scenery in an intermittent sequence. Yep, you run, swim, run and swim and so on, over the course carefully mapped out by our experienced XTERRA team.

The XTERRA SwimRun compliments the Triathlon and Trail Running XTERRA events in Malta and Gozo. Since we’ve covered Malta and Gozo already, the SwimRun event will be held on the island of Comino, one of our islands most iconic nature reserves, that continues on the XTERRA philosophy of challenging yourself in nature.

DISTANCE AND ROUTE: The event is a sprint distance with a total swim of 2km and total run of 8km (approx) with the longest swim section of around 600m.

The event caters equally for seasoned swimrunners competing for the top spots and also for the newcomers to the sport who compete for the experience and to challenge themselves! 
The run route will be held on designated pathways and not extreme trail.

CREATE A TEAM!
As in SwimRun tradition, individuals need to buddy up and participate in pairs ie you start and cross the finish line together with both of you swimming and running the course. The team’s finish time is counted when both participants cross the finish line. 

Unlike purely individual sports, SwimRun gives an opportunity for mixed gender teams to compete as well as single gender teams, and for friends to have a great time training and participating together!

You must participate in teams of 2. If you don’t have a buddy yet, post in this Facebook Event and you're virtually sure to find one 🙂

Once you are a team of 2, the first person needs to 
1. CREATE A TEAM and choose a TEAM NAME. 
2. The second person needs to JOIN A TEAM and choose the TEAM NAME from the dropdown menu.
3. BOTH ATHLETES NEED TO REGISTER AND PROCESS THEIR PAYMENT TO CONFIRM THE TEAM

WHAT TO WEAR:
Some basic equipment is advised, including tri-suit or tight-fitted sportswear, wetsuit if you wish, and swim goggles and regular running or trail shoes, preferably ones that drain easily as you will need to swim with your shoes and clothes...Paddles and swim buoys are allowed, but not mandatory

AWARDS
All participants will receive a finisher's medal, swim cap, souvenir t-shirt & winners of each category ie Male Team, Female Team and Mixed Team will get an XTERRA Malta Trophy each!
