Organiser's Description
Starting at the Docklands Sailing and Watersports Centre, this 1 mile and 2 mile race takes place in Millwall Outer Dock, a filming location for James Bond's "The world is not enough."
Taking place on Saturday 15th July 2023 with waves at 8am (elite wave), 8:30am, 9am, 9:30am, 10am, and 10.30am. The 1 mile event is just £28.50 and includes timing and results. This year we also have a 2 mile event.
With a maximum of 50 swimmers per heat, this is a perfect event for first timers and experienced athletes.
Feeling fit? Why not swim in 3x1mile waves - waves 2, 3 and 4! £100.00 cash prize for the fastest 1 mile time of the morning.
Entry includes: 1 mile swim, warm up area, timing with results, swim hat and post swim snack.
PLEASE NOTE - This is a compulsory wetsuit swim, except for the 8am elite wave, where swimmmers must be able to complete a mile in under 30 mins. The other 1-Mile waves have a generous finish within an hour time, though we can be flexible on this depening on safety, as we want swimmers to enjoy the event without feeling under any pressure. We have a number of wetsuits to lend to participants but these must be requested at the time of booking. This is an adult event for over 18's only. Entries are non-refundable and non-transferable. Spectators can view the event from the dock path but are not permitted to enter the Docklands Sailing and Watersports Centre premises.
9 July 2023 - All wetsuits have now been allocated, we can accept no further entries that require a wetsuit being borrowed.
