The marathon was introduced by the Clubs second president, Ted Scott in 1969 to challenge the lifesavers of the day to be able to save lives from any part of Mullaloo’s patrolling coastline. Mullaloo currently patrols from Whitfords point to Ocean Reef marina, a distance of 4.5 km’s. He created a marathon event which included a number of running and swimming sections along the patrolling coastline. Today the event has various modified distances to cater for all our members from Nippers through to Masters.
