A
fun and fitness day for the kids who like the water and land too!
A Wylie Ryan Kids' Surf and Turf is a swim (or wade) plus a run
in the park. It is great for kids up to 12 years of age.
Best of all, kids and youth enter for just $5! Everyone gets refreshments,
a race kit, a chance at one of the many draw prizes and medal
just for finishing. Don't forget to bring Mom and Dad too, because
you need a parent/guardian with
you to enter!

course
description
The runners start in the water at about waist deep. We will
divide the group into a) swimmers, and b) waders. Each will start
separately.
Swimmers
and waders will travel parallel to the beach until they reach
the 50m buoy, where they turn and run to shore.
They
then run from the water to the Stadium Finish Line in their shoes
(or not) which is 500m run from the beach through the park.
