New for 2024 is the Marlow Swim and Aquathlons. This event takes places at the stunning Westhorpe Lake conveniently located in the picturesque Thames Valley between Marlow and Bourne End and only 40 minutes from London.
A friendly, fun event that’s ideal for novices and experienced competitors alike, with a choice of three swim distances and two aquathlon distances, there really is something for everyone. All swims take place on the clearly marked courses that are used every day at the lake and the run route is a mix of gravel and grass running trails around Marlow Lake.
The start and finish are set near the club house which is an ideal spot for spectators to grab a drink and bite to eat.
