About the event; THE SURGE Racing Recharged Foremark Reservoir, UK Get ready for Year 2 of The Surge A unique 4-hour, lap-based SUP endurance race with a twist. For the first three hours, it's all about endurance. Paddle as many laps as you can, at your own pace, managing your effort however you choose. Then everything changes. The final hour is the Surge Hour—one all-out speed lap where bonus points are awarded to the fastest paddlers in each category. It's a race that rewards endurance, strategy and perfectly timed speed. This one's for the solo paddlers. The ones who want to discover just how far they can really go.

Three days of racing, three days of recovery. The Recovery Dock is parked at the finish line — grab a 20-minute sauna session, ease those legs and go again tomorrow.
