As Promised, the scoial event of the year, The Belpark Bondi Rescue Relay, will take place this Saturday at 2pm at Greystones South Beach. This is a social team event open to all Belpark members. The format is a team relay, consisting of a 200m swim, 500m beach run and 200m board paddle legs. Each person shall complete all 3 legs before tagging their teammate in. Teams of 3 will be allocated on the day by 'event management'. Wetsuits are permitted but those who brave the elements in the sluggos/swimsuits will get a time bonus (-30s) per person, and running in your wetsuit is forbidden. Weather permitting there will be a post event BBQ up the road in Windgates around 3pm, however this may be abandoned in favour of the Happy Pear at Shoreline for post event vegetarian snacks and coffees. Please bring you swimming gear, runners for run (you wont be running barefoot!) and some warm dry clothes for once you finish your section of the race!! There is a large free carpark behind the Irish Rail carpark in greystones, and we will meet up at 1.45pm for a 2pm start. Details on the attached map! drive.google.com/open?id=1PfWmGF5PwgiN5xYF9xMSgVGJk4&usp=sharingWe will make a call on the BBQ nearer the time! Any questions please let me know but in the meantime if you can let me know via link below if you are attending! www.surveymonkey.com/r/29B3YT6thanks, Ronan sluggo king kane |
