Dash 4 Cash is back and it’s bigger and better than last year..! (Well, we think so anyway)
The Handicappers were caught out last year which has forced some drastic changes.
Some of the Youth Members and non-training Members of the Club caused a few - highly contentious - upsets: Jamie Brigg (other than the normal Brigg swimmer) winning a handicap swim - go figure, Harry Pazin who forgot to advise us he was a state cross country runner - righto, Tim Tucak in the Iron - really, Elliot Kluken who trains with his Olympian coach everyday - cue eye roll and Logan Ovenden-Clarke, apparently the Surf Fit sessions paid off - kudos.
This year will see you and your team members Dash 4 Cash - but with a twist. All competitors race together, your individual time is recorded and added to your team’s total time.
Enter any of the 5 events below (one or all) and you and your team could win the $200 per event on offer. Total prize pool for the day is $1,000!
Swim - Inner buoys 0.35 km
Board - M shaped course 0.50 km
Ski - Apex course 0.65 km
Run - Loop course 1.2 km
Taplin (Iron) - Short course 1.2 km
Open to all Swanny members from 13+ to Veterans (SRC/Bronze Medallion).
Safety first, so all competitors must be in their hi-vis yellow or pink vests. Retire the faded and torn ones. We know you went to Aussies one year, it’s time for a new one. Unless it's Annie in her Coolie Gold vest.
Teams will be selected at random from the entries and together you’ll race for the fastest cumulative time.
But don’t get complacent - all teams will change for each event based on entries, so it doesn’t matter whether you can ski, board or swim, as long as your time is counted, you are in the race and running for the cash.
The winning team splits their prize money as they see fit - bring your calculators.
Sign up on the morning - you’ve got to be in it to win it!
