2a SwimRun Barcelona

The second edition of the Swim Run Barcelona took place last Sunday, November 19th. It was a magnificent day where the participants united the towns of Cabrera and Badalona in the modalities of 32K and 21K, and the towns of Premià and Badalona in the 11K modality, following the coast of Barcelona-Maresme.

This spectacular competition, the SwimRun, was born in the Nordic countries, in Stockholm. Since 2006 the SwimRun discipline has been growing at a great speed and has gradually reached our lands. Neda El Món has been a pioneer in organizing such a race in the Barcelona-Maresme coast and attracts both triathletes and swimmers. At an international level there are more than 180 SwimRun competitions grouped into various leagues, the most popular being the Ötillö Races.

The SwimRun can be practiced individually or by teams, and it is about intercallating segments of short swims and runs without transitions. You have to use a wetsuits and your running shoes. Additional material such as pull-buoy can be carried out (to avoid lowering your hip because of the shoes weight) and training paddles (which also help you to swim).
