Your
adventure
Balanced and flowing, this course follows more of the harbour’s edge, with a standout bridge crossing marking the turn back in. With less swimming and plenty of runnable trail, it’s a confidence-building step up and a great solo or team option for runners keen to give swimrun a crack.
