Intro to Swimrun (Copy)

Join Desert Endurance Racing for a swimrun adventure that explores the waters and hills of Lake Pleasant Regional Park! This swimrun is designed to provide an intro into the new-emerging sport of swimrun.

Please arrive at least 15 minutes early and prepare to be feet wet by 0800

We will meet in the parking lot by the restrooms at the Castle Creek (North) Boat Ramp (See map pin)

There is a $7.00 entry fee

This no-drop swimrun will take a varying route depending on water levels and boat traffic. The swim portions will be 10-15 minutes long and the run portions will be 15-20 minutes long. There is no designated route - that's the fun of swimrun!

To ensure a safe and enjoyable ride, please come prepared with the following:

• Safety swim buoy (mandatory)

• A brightly colored swim cap (mandatory)

• Swim goggles with defog

• Trail running shoes you don't mind getting wet

• Socks that prevent blistering and debris from entering

• Optional pull buoy that can be attached to you somehow

• Optional paddles to help you pull

• A way of carrying water and fuel (dry bag safety buoy is perfect)

• Depending on water temperature, a wetsuit you can run in

• Sunscreen and sunglasses are highly recommended

• A positive attitude and willingness to have fun!
