LONG AQUA

Our longest distance can be enjoyed by everyone, from the casual to the more serious. Enter as an individual or as a two-person tag team with one swimmer and one runner.

A fantastic course awaits, combing a two lap swim for a total of 900m and a spectacular scenic coastal 7km out and back run – the popular, ‘Long Aqua’ is the first aquathon of the day allowing time to watch your kids or mates in the other distances.
