The Cole Classic 1km, 2km and 5km events will start at Shelly Beach and finish in front of Manly Life Saving Club on beautiful Manly Beach.
The Race Committee will conduct a conditions assessment on the morning of the event and if the conditions are too dangerous at Manly Beach then the contingency swim will be implemented and swimmers will finish at Shelly Beach.
In the event that the 5km swim is deemed too dangerous for swimmers and a reduced swim is not an option, all 5km participants will be given the opportunity to participate in the 1km and/or 2km swim. This will be advised by the announcer on the morning of the event.
