Race Course Map
This year, the 1 mile swim will be a 2 loop rectangle vs. swimming the entire perimeter and "fingers" of the lake. We made this change for safety reasons, for a consistent swim course and also to provide for a faster swim!
Mini Skinny Dip Map
This beginner swim course is a smaller, 1 200 yard rectangle that will not overlap with the 1 mile swimmers. The swim will be followed by a 1 mile run, which may overlap with the full course swim/runners.
