On the 7th, participants of the ‘2022 LOTTE Oe Race’ are swimming in Seokchon Lake, Songpa-gu, Seoul. The Oe Race is an aquathlon event consisting of two disciplines excluding cycling from the triathlon, which is known as the three-sport ironman competition. The race includes swimming 1.5km in Seokchon Lake and a vertical marathon sky run (SKY RUN) climbing 2,917 stairs up to the 123rd floor of Lotte World Tower, making it the world’s first course combining swimming and stair climbing. This is the first time a swimming competition has been held at Seokchon Lake. /Reporter Moon Honam munonam@
