Join us for this year's SwimRun. A new event for Salty Events.

What is SwimRun?

SwimRun is a multi discipline event, consisting of swimming and running but there is no transition in between each discipline.  Athletes were a combination of a wetsuit, trainers, hat and goggles and pull buoy and hand paddles. The wetsuit is typically a short legged wetsuit to enable a less restrictive run, but any wetsuit can be used.  The trainers are worn during the swim, and as athletes exit the water, they get straight into the run section.  The use of the pull buoy and paddles supports the heavier legs and drag created from the trainers.
