Billed as the UK National Swimrun Championship, Breca Swimrun Jersey was the organiser’s final event of 2021 and the fourth in their UK series. The top five finishers from each category at their other UK races (Coniston, Gower and Loch Lomond) were all offered free places in Jersey. While not everyone was able to take up the offer, enough did to ensure a high standard of racing. The event was also open to other competitors. In line with their other UK races this season, Breca only put on the so-called ‘sprint’ distance, which features 4.5km of swimming and 15.5km of running. (The full distance, when it returns in 2022, covers 6km of swimming and 47km of running).
