  • The 25 yard sprint events do NOT count towards the swimmers’ 4 event maximum. So, enter the 25’s…it is fun to swim fast!

!This is a flat-out 50 sprint anything goes. You must start in the water with a push-off, touch the wall at25 yards and at the finish and stay in your own lane. This also does not count towards the 4 event maximum.

#That’s right. You can swim the IM in any order you want just so you swim one length of each stroke legally. That includes turns. This does not count towards your 4 event limit.

$This year’s Legend of Swimming is?????? Swim if you dare just like ????? does! And stick around for the group picture!

Events in bold italics do not count toward the 4 event limit!
