University recreation department plans series of Friday "surf and turf" events

Looking for a great way to end the work week with some exercise and fun? The University of California, Santa Barbara, Recreation Department might have the solution.

Starting this Friday, May 8, and for the next four Fridays through June 5, the UCSB Recreation Department is offering Surf & Turf, a fun duathlon event starting at 6 p.m. Adults and children as young as 8 years old are welcome. Registration fee for the entire series is $60 for students and $65 for non-students, or sign up for individual events for $15 each.

The event will feature a 500-meter ocean swim and/or a 5-kilometer ocean view run around the UCSB Lagoon. Participants can sign up for the entire series, or individual events, and are welcome to participate in both the swim and run, or choose between the two. Walkers are also welcome.

There will be entertainment and snacks after each event.
