This is an out and back course starting and ending at Mt. Holly Boat Landing.
Course and time limits:
This is an in-water treading gun start. Swimmers begin against the current for the first half mile, then turn around to finish the second half of the course with the current. There are NO time limits for this race.
Current:
The race begins downstream from the Duke Energy dam, which controls the current. Aquatic Adventures makes every effort to schedule races around the dam schedule, so the current is expected to be minimal when the race starts. Please note though that the management of the river is Duke Energy's first priority, so if there is a power emergency or other need, they could change their schedule and impact the current during the race. Even if the dam is opened, conditions are still swimmable. Swimmers will begin against the current, and turn around at the halfway point to finish downstream.
