Frequently Asked Questions

What are the distances for the Run Swim Run?

1K beach run, 1K ocean swim, 5K boardwalk run.

Do I wear shoes on the beach run which is the first run of the event?

This is your choice. Most people do not but some do. We will bring these shoes back to transition but not until after the race. So, if you choose to wear shoes on this run, you will need 2 pairs of shoes.

Is the swim with the current?

We make our best attempt to have the swim with the current. Someone gets in on race morning to determine the current before we decide which way the event will go. That said, sometimes the currents are different inside and outside of the break. Some folks get in before the race to decide where they want to swim.

Can I wear a wet suit for the swim?

Yes. Some people wear a wet suit and it is legal.

What do people wear for the Run Swim Run?
