SWIM COURSE
¼ Mile - Point to Point Swim – The swim starts at the boat house and finishes at the upper beach – no turns…a straight shot! The swim course is also great for family, friends and spectators as they line the reservoir cheering athletes on. The water is typically cool this time of year, (58-62′) and wetsuits are required.

*** Practice Swims – are only permitted on Race Day. The Department of Conservation & Recreation’s guidelines prohibits athletes from completing practice swims. Please follow these guidelines, thank you! ***
