The Series
The ETA is hosting two fun Aquathlons this winter. They are low-key events comprising of a simulated open water swim in the Kinsmen competition pool (all lane ropes out with buoys marking the course) followed by a multi-lap run around the Kinsmen indoor 200m track.
The events are meant to be fun race simulation training sessions to get out of the winter training doldrums and test your fitness.
The distance of the swim and run depend on age groups. Each Age Group will have a male and female wave. Age groups and distances are as follows:
| Age Group | Swim Distance | Run Distance |
|---|---|---|
| Youth 7 – 9 | 1 Lap | 3 Laps |
| Youth 10 – 12 | 2 Laps | 5 Laps |
| Youth 13 – 15 | 2 Laps | 8 Laps |
| Developing Racers 16 – 23 | 3 Laps | 10 Laps |
| Adult Group A (Experienced) | 3 Laps | 10 Laps |
| Adult Group B (Beginners) | 3 Laps | 10 Laps |
1 swim lap = 120m, 1 run lap = 200m
There will be manual timing by volunteers with some fun prizes and awards at the end of the event in the track area.
We are limited to the first 100 participants due to the short window we have the pool.
