We offer 3k & 5k Open Water Swims, with a 1500m option at the Ohio Games. People call our races positive, friendly, and fun because with your registration you get a FREE performance tee, in-race pictures, and a post-race party with great food, finisher medals, swag, music, and much more!
Our races are USA Triathlon Sanctioned, which means you will need to purchase a USAT membership or one day pass to participate. Our swim races are hosted in conjunction with triathlon events, and open water swimmers share these same courses as the triathletes.
All 2022 Races will comply with all Federal, State, and Local COVID-19 Protocols; please refer to the athlete guides for each of these races to learn more.
We are working with our local partners to secure permits for all our 2022 races. The dates listed below are tentative and will not be official until we have received our permits. Once we have the permits we will open registration. Stay tuned to social media, this website, and your email for updates. If you would like to be added to the email list please complete our contact form and we will get you in the database. Please mark your calendars for all our 2022 race dates. Thank you for your continued support, and we look to seeing you on course soon!

Our Open Swims are 3k and 5k in length (plus a 1500m race at the Ohio Games)
Our races are USA Triathlon Sanctioned, which means you will need to purchase a USAT membership or one day pass to participate. Our swim races are hosting in conjunction with triathlon events, and open water swimmers share these same course as the triathletes.
Swim caps are provided and we ask you wear your designated swim cap for safety. Wetsuits are allowed in these races, if the water temperature is below 78 degrees we will be wetsuit legal. This means you can wear a wetsuit if you want, but you do not have to wear one.
We will have a time trial start for all races. Athletes times will start on the beachfront, and end once the athlete exits the water and crosses the finish line.
The swims will use a 750m course: 1500 is 2-laps; 3000m is 4-laps, and 5000m is 1 x 500m loop (1/2 lap) plus 6-laps on the 750m loop. The courses will be marked with large buoys. We will have lifeguards on the beach and in kayaks in the water to ensure a safe race for everyone.
We will have packet pickup and registration at the park beachfront on Saturday from 4-6pm.
