Scilly Swim Challenge

New for 2019 this is our first race. It involves a complete circumnavigation of St. Mary’s, the largest island in the archipelago.

But to make it more interesting (and safer!) it will be a stage race, split into 4 legs of 3 - 4km each.

You can enter as a solo or in a relay team of 2, 3 or 4. At each stop there will be a quick feed and then the restart will be handicapped with slowest from previous leg going in first.

Come along and be the first to experience the Scilly 360 Swim Race.
