Just a few things that you need to know.... In order to swim the Midmar Mile, you need to first swim the Capital K qualifier in December.

 

Training starts early October every year and coincides with the start of the 4th school term.

 

There are only a few weekends left to train for the Capital K qualifier swim race between then and the day of the race on the first weekend of December.

Increment weather or illness on training day may also affect the training period.

 

Payment for your race entry: Please note the cut off date is the 26th November. This is the final date by which we need to pay your entry fee to the race organisers. The entry fee is R200. 

 

If you are late with payment you will have to enter yourself for the swim AND be prepared to pay a lot more to enter – the race organisers will increase the registration fee for late entries.

 

Important times and dates to remember are: 2nd December is the Captal K Qualifying swim. Time: 08h30 for the 3km swim and 10h00 for the 1km swim.

 

If you travel from home, please leave early so that you are at the dam at least 45mins beforehand to collect your caps and timing chips from me. If you are booked into our campsite at Aird Farm, we will leave the campsite in convoy after breakfast as it is only a 15min drive to the dam. Be aware that there is an entry fee into the dam. It is usually about R30 per person, charged at the gate.

 

Please be aware that times, dates and charges are all subject to change by the race organisers. If you are registered on on this site, we will keep you updated with the latest info.

 

See u all in the water and Just Keep Swimming !
