Pick ‘n Pay Bosveld Mile

The 11th Bosveld Mile will take place on 29th March 2009.The first “mile” was in November 1998 and in that year 20 swimmers participated.In 2008 there were more than 500 entries.The Bosveld Mile is popular because its beautiful venue attracts swimmers from various parts of our country.

The green lawns go right down to the waters edge.  The water is clean and clear, and the ablution blocks are neat and tidy.The Bosveld Mile is also part of the Elite Swim Series that is supported by many well-known open water swimmers.In the mile we will have three age categories of swimmers:  13 years & under;    14-30 years;     31 years & up.

There is a 200 m for children 9 years and younger and also our popular Half-mile (800 m) with cash prizes for the first three male & the first three female swimmers.  Medals are awarded to everyone completing the event.

We also have a 400 m fun event – also with a medal for each swimmer completing the event (but no results or prize money).  The entry fee for the fun event is only R40.00 (pre- and late entries).

Gauteng North life-savers will be on duty, and also well-trained Paramedics will be in attendance.Pancakes, as well as other food, cold drinks and coffee stalls also contribute to creating a friendly, happy and relaxing atmosphere.
