Organiser's Description

This epic Swimrun race across some of the UK’s most stunning and rugged wilderness – the Western Fells of the Lake District - returns for 2016. Over 17 consecutive legs - 8 swims and 9 runs - teams of two will complete a total of 6k of lake swimming and 38k of trail running, including 1,900m of vertical ascent and the infamous Honister Pass. Do not underestimate the difficulty of this challenge – you will need to be both an experienced open water swimmer and confident in the high fells.
