2010 Channel Challenge
2010 Channel Challenge
|
The San Remo District Community Bank Channel Challenge is a Swim-Run event to be held on Saturday 30th January 2010.
The swim comprises a 500 metre swim across the Channel from San Remo to Phillip Island followed by a 2.5 kilometre run back across the Phillip Island Bridge to finish down the main street of San Remo.

Due to the strong current flowing through the Channel, the start of the swim is timed to coincide with the slack water of high tide. On completion of the swim, competitors pass through the transition area adjacent to the Phillip Island bridge where they change into their running shoes for the start of the final leg. The 2.5 kilometre run across the bridge back to San Remo tends to spreads the runners out, and makes a spectacular sprint to the finish line in the main street with large crowds urging the runners on.
