WHAT IS THE QUAD?

The Quad is an exhilarating test of stamina, strength and fitness, combining swimming, walking/running, kayaking and cycling.  The challenge will take teams in, over and around Loch Tay, including the summits of the Ben Lawers range & Tarmachan.  For those who wish to join in the fun of the weekend but don’t fancy all four disciplines there is an exciting new relay team option.  Celebrate your achievement on the banks of Loch Tay with a real Scottish knees up, complete with feast, ceilidh and fireworks.  Why not make a weekend of it and bring family and friends along to support you in your quest to complete the 2013 Quad. 

Swim - 0.8 miles across Loch Tay

Run/Walk - 15 miles over seven Munros
Kayak - 7 miles along the loch
Cycle - 34 miles around Loch Tay

The 2013 event takes place on 13 July.  Would you believe it’s also the 13th year of the event, hopefully not an unlucky number for anyone!
