Splash & Dash Race Series

June 3, July 1 and August 5, 2010

1.5km Swim & 5km Run

The Splash and Dash Race series was our first ever event. It is an aquathon consisting of a 1.5km (.94 Mile) swim and a 5km (3.1 mile) run. It is a fun, community focused, grassroots event. There are no timing chips, transition is not fenced in with guards, and spectators, kids and dogs are encouraged. The swim is in Stevens Creek Reservoir right outside of Cupertino, CA. The run is on Stevens Creek Canyon park trails. It is a great way to get an intense effort with two disciplines, or a great way to get open water swimming practice. A lot of top age group triathletes in the region use it as a monthly fitness gauge. We hope you can come out and enjoy the event especially the post race food and refreshments.
