The swim entry point is located conveniently close to the transition area. The time to walk from to the swim start is approximately 2 minutes. From swim exit back to the transition area the time will be even less.
The Nation’s Triathlon will utilize a dual swim start and dual swim courses running simultaneously. Athletes will swim the exact same mirror opposite courses then finish through the same swim exit, run into the same transition area then head out onto the same bike and run course. This will allow us to add athletes to the race but consistently ensure a short wait time before the swim start!
The swim course is supported by 20-30 kayaks plus the fine men and women from the Washington DC Metropolitan Police Harbor Division and the DC Fire and EMS.
