Les Atlantides dans la course

Atlantides in the race.

From 6pm to midnight, swimmers in teams of up to eight will attempt to swim as many lengths as possible. It's more of a leisure challenge than a competition," says Stéphane Mistouflet, director of Le Mans pools.

There will also be games and inflatable structures. There will also be a DJ on hand to liven up the evening, and the outdoor pools will be open until 10pm.
