NUEVA FECHA

WHAT IS THE SWIM RUN?

 

This new discipline combines a series of open water swims with cross-country running (trail) .

It is a fun and demanding modality, which takes place in the middle of nature, so the terrain presents difficulties and challenges.

This is why the test is usually done in pairs, since being accompanied benefits the participants to complete the test.

The idea arose in Sweden in 2002, as a bet between friends, but it was not until 2006 that the first official competition was held.

We have organized this sporting event aimed at promoting physical activity, sports, and healthy coexistence, as well as fostering tourism and economic activation in the community where it takes place.

Bacalar Swim Run will feature:

  • Ambulance and trained support staff in first aid.

  • Lifeguards and support boats on swimming routes.

  • Checkpoints, judges, and supplies at each transition from swimming to running and vice versa.

  • Route signage on land and in the water.

  • Recovery area.
