Countdown to May 28...
G’day Swimmers,
We hope your preparation is going well!
We're now only four weeks out from the event, so it's time to lock in some details so you're ready to go on May 28.
Please note, if you do not fulfill your requirements, like your Skipper registering, submitting your Solo qualifying time, or each team member signing their waiver...you won't be able to swim. So please take some time now to make this happen!
If you haven't booked your accom, Novotel Surfers Paradise are 100m from our Finish Area and have great specials available for competitors and supporters. Click on their banner below to find out more.
If you have any questions about your entry, or the event in general, drop us an email at Marathon@worldseriesswims.com.au
Happy training!
Team WSS

The final Event Handbook will be your reference at the Safety Briefing and on event day – every Skipper should carry a copy of the Handbook on their Support Boat.

SOLO QUALIFICATION
Every Solo swimmer must qualify to participate and this qualifying swim only needs to be done before event day, not before you enter. For 2022 we are relaxing these rules so that swimmers can complete their own qualifying swims. If you’d like to complete your own swim, we just need proof of your swim distance and time, EG from your Garmin (file link or screenshot). This can be uploaded to your entry records on our EventPlus online registration system (once you have entered).
DUE DATE: 5:00pm, Friday May 20
