Welcome To The Midmar Maniacs !!!
General Costs and Training Times
CAPITAL K and MIDMAR MILE TRAINING
We officially start training for Capital K in the first week of the fourth school term, usually the second week of October. The Capital K race takes place on the first weekend of December. For ease of access to the dam (and fun) we stay at the Midmar Maniacs camp at Aird Country House - some 15mins drive from Midmar. This is a great way for supporters and swimmers to mingle or relax at the pool. The all-inclusive cost for camping is R460 pp - not per day - it's for the entire weekend! This fee includes all meals from Friday dinner to Sunday breakfast. More about Capital K accomodation HERE.
The Brown’s School Team is made up of Browns Pupils only and train (compulsory) free during selected breaks AND Saturdays. Private individuals train on weekday afternoons and Saturdays.Training sessions for both Capital K and Midmar Mile are on Tuesdays from 4pm to 6pm and Thursdays from 4pm to 6pm. On Saturdays the Browns team pupils join in and we have three sessions: 9am to 10am, 10am to 11am and 11am to 12 noon.
The Midmar Mile training continues after the Capital K swim. Training times remain the same. This event is usually held on the second weekend of February. As with Capital K, we camp at Aird Farm for the weekend. More about Midmar Mile accommodation HERE.
The cost of all training sessions are R20 per swimmer, payable in advance and free for the Browns School Team. The venue is the Browns School pool at 28 Mariannridge Road, Caversham Glen, Pinetown.
After the Midmar Mile swim in February, training continues on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons only. Weekends fall away until October. We will continue this training for as long as the water remains warm enough to swim. <Register to Camp> <Register to for Training>
