The Antigo Swim Club will present the second annual Splash N Dash July 13 at Veteran's Memorial Park.
Racers will "Splash" into the crystal clear waters of Jack Lake and "Dash" off for a trail run. Athletes can choose from two categories, short or long course. Race can be done either solo or tandem teams.
“Our first year was a great success and has created a buzz in our community,” race coordinator Michelle Koss said. “Athletes nowadays are looking for unique and challenging races and we have that right here in our county.”
The event’s goal is to promote health, wellness and tourism in Langlade County.
To help prepare for the event, Antigo High School swim coach Heather Roff is now offering open water sessions twice a week for six weeks. For more information contact Roff at hjroff@gmail.com
