Splash and Dash: Round 3

The Wellington Splash and Dash series offers a variety of events suitable for all levels of fitness and experience, providing participants with the opportunity to engage in both Swim + Run events and standalone Ocean Swims. The series is characterized by its scenic setting at Freyberg Beach along Oriental Parade, where participants can enjoy the waterfront views while competing.

Events are structured to cater to a wide audience. Adults can participate in an aquathon which combines swimming and running, with varying distances to accommodate different skill levels. For children under 13, there are running events tailored to be approachable with shorter distances.

This event fosters a community-focused atmosphere, encouraging participants to either compete or simply experience the joy of partaking in a group activity. It’s an excellent opportunity for working individuals to unwind in a lively, supportive environment due to its convenient scheduling after work hours.

The series is known for its well-organized nature, managed by Barefoot Sport, ensuring a smooth experience for all attendees from start to finish.
