Roseland/St Mawes 10K Day 2024

The swims chosen for this event are based on the days conditions, as such we email all the entrants 2-3 days before the event and confirm the first meeting point. Meeting at around 9 - 9.30am, very likely in the Roseland area. This email will come through Ticket Tailor, so make sure you check your Spam folder.

We avoid holding mass participation events and cap our events at 50 entrants...we may let a couple of regulars in after 50 if asked nicely. We also see this event as more of an 'event' than a race. This cuts out mass starts, pre-race nerves and promotes a great atmosphere on the day. As we don't have a set meeting location and swims we also minimise the chances of cancelling the event (due to the conditions).

We try and keep our events as affordable as possible. As such, we ditch all of the unnecessary paraphernalia that sometimes comes with events and simply give you an event swimming cap. If you'd like us to bring a Sea Swim Cornwall t-shirt, let us know prior to the event.

We love doing events in the Roseland as you have coastline facing in multiple direction, so swimming in flat conditions is generally very achievable.  

The plan is to take in 3-4 swims depending on the conditions. We'll also look to possibly swim 2 different routes from one of the locations, as it alleviates a bit of time pressure on the day. There is no requirement to swim all 4 swims but you need to let us know prior to a swim if you're not going to participate. There is no required speed for the event, provided you're confident you can cover the distances. There is no wetsuit requirement. If you have any medical conditions that could adversely affect you in the water, you do need to bring a tow float. You don't need to wear the event cap but DO NEED to wear a bright cap (not a black neoprene cap).

In the build up to the event there is no guarantee which swims we'll include. We may even change routes on the day. As such, we generally advise you to bring snacks, water and lunch. Don't count on cafes and shops...although you should have 2-3 days notice as to where we'll be swimming. 

You'll find our cancellations policy and terms & conditions on the checkout page.
