The Rez Splash & Dash

Splash & Dash or Aquathon is a fast growing fun sport that combines swimming and running and we have a gorgeous location for this brand new event on Saturday 02 August at Little River Reservoir on Loch Lomond Road in East Saint John.

The Consultants By The Sea Splash & Dash is an excellent introduction to the multi-sport lifestyle and is a stepping stone to those interested in progressing on to triathlon but without the need for an expensive bike. More importantly, it’s great fun, and open to athletes of all ability levels, age and experience. Its also a fun event for experienced Triathletes, Runners and Swimmers.

The Rez is a newly renovated park with a wonderful trail and lake located close to the heart of Saint John with a beach, gravel trail and a beautiful lake. Parking is available right beside the park and the trail is flat and free of vehicles with several lovely pedestrian bridges to cross over as we run around the trail. A full lap of the trail is roughly 3.3k and is very easy underfoot.

We will have an area set aside for transition and all races will start with the swim portion of the event so you will need goggles, swimwear, wetsuit for the Adult events, towel, socks, T-shirt and sneakers. Everyone must run with a T-shirt on. The races will be continuous and your time will start when the race starts and will finish when you cross the finish line. The time it takes for you to transition from Swim to run will be included in your time.

8.30am start - 375m swim & 3.3k run open to everyone 14 and older - $22.60* & $25.00 on Race Day
