I spoke with my friend and he said; If you swimming 5 km you can swim in bosphorus race.. The course is nearly 6,5 km but because of the current the course will
4,5 – 5 km.. Just you have to take care of currents map of the bosphorus. When you are in current you can get out of race”

You can learn the details when the committee announced the race. Also I can learn the currents and try to write here..

The 18th July shows as the official date in the website calendar. But there is no signing up information as of yet. The old website – they have updated it last week – said that they would give signing up information today.

Hi niyazi, thanks for the explanation… What kind of fitness level do you think it is required? I can do 5 km in a swimming pool in 2 hours, and I still have lots of time to train (including open water swimming). Do you think I will be able to make it?

Thanks!
