NYC SWIM

2012 Swim Series

Congratulations to all of the swimmers at this past weekend's Great Hudson River Swim and a heartfelt thank you to the volunteers who helped make our season opener, the Great Hudson River Swim, a success. Official results are now posted. If you liked the Hudson, come and try a swim in the East River at the Stars & Stripes Aquathlon and Swim on June 16. There are swim-run and swim-only options — join us and see what all of the buzz is about.

Registration for most of our summer series events is still open. Check out the individual event pages for tentative swim dates and more information on the swims, then get ready to enroll!

General enrollment for both the Manhattan Island Relays and the Manhattan Island Marathon Swim is now closed. Corporate relay enrollment for the August Manhattan Island Relays will remain open until all slots are filled or July 4, 2012, whichever occurs first. If fewer than five corporate relays enroll for this event, the unused slots will NOT be reallocated to other relay categories.

About Us

NYC Swim organizes swimming events in the waters around Manhattan. Since 1993, NYC Swim has attracted well over 15,000 participants in more than 165 swimming races, thus helping to revive a local aquatic tradition that had been abandoned for nearly a century. In 2010, it was recognized for its work by being inducted into the International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame.

Showcasing many of the sights that make New York famous, our premier events are the Liberty Island, Manhattan Island Marathon, Brooklyn Bridge and Governors Island swims. In addition, NYC Swim will host seven other events of various distances in 2012 including a multi-sport race and the Ederle Swim.
