About the Event

The 2nd Annual "Swim of Legends" will be held on August 30th, 2026. Finish the summer with an open water ultra distance swim in the clear waters of iconic Geneva Lake! This is a US Masters certified swim! A USMS membership is required, an additional $20 one day fee is required if you are not a USMS member. No additional fee for USMS members. This event provides a secure, well-supported environment for experienced swimmers. The swim will be about 11 kilometers (7 miles). Each swimmer will be required to use a visibility float, we will have small ones to minimize drag that can be used for the race.

Wetsuits will not be allowed unless water temperatures are significantly cooler than the expected 78 degrees.
