Sharks in Boston? Bostonians call them “Shaaahks”! In the past, this swim has taken place in Boston Harbor but this year we have had to move the course to Carson Beach. The 1500 meter competitive swim will be a triangular swimming starting and ending in Carson Beach.
PLEASE NOTE: This swim is not for novices. This event is for experienced open-water swimmers only. You should be able to swim one mile comfortably in a pool in under 40 minutes.
