Calling all SwimRunners, or those who want to give swimrun a try
Come and join us for our first Ontario swimrun of the season, where you swim in the waters of the Welland Recreational Canal and run on trails along its shores.
This event is perfect for the first-time swimrunner with our 7.5 K distance and for the more experienced swimrunner with our longer 10K event. 2 distances that are perfect for an early season event.
We are very excited about our upcoming season and look forward to a great crowd on June 14, 2026
