Swimruns in the UK
Often requiring teams of two, swimruns are a multi-stage event without the need to change clothes in transitions - you swim in your running shoes and run in your wetsuit. Ranging from coastal island-hopping to laps in and around lakes, swimrun events are becoming increasingly popular across the UK.
