#30: Bog Snorkeling Championship
What weird about a swimming championship, you might ask? That would be the costumes. Many people participate as flamingos, sharks, or even grapes, which they wear over a snorkel. Bog snorkeling is a sporting event with the standard, average rules, but there is always a twist with these championships.

The contestants are not allowed to flop around in the water, looking silly all the while, but they are expected to take 197 feet of bog with them. Many such competitions around the globe go for a big triathlon. The triathlon has a five-mile run and a 12-mile bike ride on a mountain.
