CAKE CHALLENGE- QUEENFORD SUMMER SERIES - A Series of Challenges at Queenford Lakes taking place between June and August.
Starting with 1km and increasing each time to finish with 10 km in late August
You can choose to enter as many of those as you wish, so there should be a challenge to fit you whatever level or swim experience you have.
You can start small and build it up through the season, stay short this season if you're a beginner, or use longer challenges as training for big endurance swims you might have entered.
We always try to make our event as accessible as possible, however the entry fee of the longer challenges will reflect the fact that the lake will have to open early and/or stay closed to other activities for some time and require more work ahead.
Your entry will include:
- your swim
- a delicious cake post swim
- a memento of your challenge for each swims
Shorter challenges will take place on the traditional swim loops of our front lake during normal swim sessions, but for longer challenges we might use extended loops or even swim into the back lake to make it more interesting, and earlier start times.
All info will be provided for each event. - There will be cut off times for each events.
If you are unsure you can also challenge yourself to swim as far as you can within the time allowed. Last year a couple of determined swimmer finished their challenge after cut off in the lido.
There will be a dedicated pontoon area for drinks and snack for fuelling during the longer swims.
- This is a challenge and not a timed race event
- These series are not restricted to Queenford Lakes regular swimmers only, but will require you to register on our booking system SWIMSCAN to enter (you can register here :
https://swimscan.com/people/new). You do not need to be a member to enter events, registration is sufficient. However the entry fee is slightly smaller for members.
- Entries will strictly close on the Monday before the event to allow for planning and purchasing - no changes after this to avoid waste - - Booking and bright tow floats compulsory
We really hope you enjoy these! If you do not wish to participate, our normal summer swim sessions will run alongside as usual too.
