About the Event

Our Swim Lead will provide a detailed overview of the swim leg of our race, answering questions and offering helpful information. The talk will begin at the start of the session, but you are welcome to arrive at any time to swim, practice, and time your 400-yard swim.

Half of the pool will be reserved for practicing the snake swim, swimming laps, and learning how to pass others.
The other half of the pool will be dedicated to accurately timing the swim leg, with our timing crew using their equipment to record results.

Important: You must have completed both your registration and waivers before swimming.
