Yes. Both men and women can take part and will start at the same time. In previous editions we have organised a separate women-only start in order that only women are in the pool while swimming; however the rest of the venue is mixed. Please contact us if a women-only start is something which would enable you to participate.
The minimum recommended age is 7 years. Participants must be able to complete the course safely, including swimming 100m without stopping. If you feel that your child is capable and will enjoy the challenge then we may allow them to compete in the 7-9 age category. We will stop an underage child from racing if they are causing potential danger to themselves and other participants. Younger children can take part in the mini-kids aquathlon.
