Weymouth Wade
When? 16 April 2017
Where? Weymouth
Weymouth & Portland Lions Club are holding a wading race through the sea from the Pavilion to either the clock (adults) or to the statue (children). It will take place at low tide at a distance from the shore where, for average height participants, the sea will be around knee height.
Participants will be invited (not compulsory) to wear fancy dress, which will conform to a theme (TBA). They will run back to the start/finish along the sand, approx half a mile for children and a mile for adults.
'Checking in’ on the day will take place in the foyer of the Pavilion and will open at 0930 and close at 1030 with a warm up at 1050 and race start at 1100. Prizes and medals will be presented to winners of each category and runners up.
