Jersey Round Island Challenge

31st August 2019 @ 9:30 am - 5:00 pm

In 2018 over 200 people took on the inaugural challenge and either swam, canoe/kayaked, rowed, SUP’ed or ran around the stunning island of Jersey. In doing so they not only took on a massive challenge but also took on one of the highest tidal ranges in the world. So impressive is the challenge that Red Bull UK listed the event as one of the top 11 extreme UK fitness challenges in 2016.

Race Categories

All categories complete the achievement of circum-navigating the island, as a team or solo. There are 5 categories for the Jersey Round Island Challenge:

  • Run
  • Swim
  • Stand Up Paddle board (SUP)
  • Row
  • Kayak / Surf Ski

If you would like to participate in the JRIC but you cannot see your discipline, please contact the event team for more information. Please note that all of the above categories can be as a solo competitor or as a relay team.

Each race category is managed by a relevant local club, who provides essential support, training and safety guidelines. For the sake of safety, every entrant must first demonstrate that they are fit and capable to participate in this endurance event. Sign off for participation will come from an experienced Jersey club member.

  • Jersey Long Distance Swimming Club (JLDSC)
