You can register from 1.30pm in the event field, just opposite Thurlestone Golf Club (collect your hat, chip timer, and merchandise if purchased).

You'll need to be on the beach ready to swim at least 10 mins before your race starts. We start from the right hand side of Leas Foot Sand, a 150m walk from the event car park.

The Nippers and Youth race is from the same beach, in the shelter of the small bay.

The 3 mile swimmers will set off next, everyone will line up between the flags and start on the whistle, then the 2 mile swimmers. Followed by the 1 mile swimmers.

The finish is on the left hand side of the beach. For swimmers doing multiple laps, you'll use the Australian Exit (you leave the water, run around a marker, and re-enter the water for your next lap).

The Golf Club are putting on food and drinks, so stick around and enjoy your post race dinner! Your post race food from the golf club Lasagna, or Veggie Lasagna, with salad and chips for £12.
