Environment Outdoor

Multisport race alternating between swimming and running — a fast, intense endurance event combining two of the most demanding athletic disciplines.

The Essentials

  • Complete the two legs of the race in order: a swim segment first, followed immediately by a run, with the total time across both counting as your final result.
  • Pace your swim conservatively rather than sprinting from the start, since going out too hard in the water leaves your legs heavy and sluggish once you transition to running.
  • Practice the transition from swimming to running before race day, since moving quickly from a horizontal swimming position to an upright running stride takes some getting used to and can feel disorienting at first.
  • Wear gear suited to both legs, such as a swimsuit or trisuit that you can run in comfortably, since changing clothes fully between segments wastes valuable time.
  • Know the course layout in advance, including where the swim exit and run route are marked, since confusion about the route in a race setting costs time and can be dangerous in open water.
  • Hydrate and fuel appropriately in the hours before the race, balancing enough energy for both the swim and the run without feeling weighed down in the water.
