Thank You For Supporting Us!

SwimMAC is the top ranked USA Swimming Club in the country for the fourth year in a row, but the local impact to Charlotte-area families is even greater. Our Swim School teaches roughly 15,000 swim lessons annually to make sure children in Charlotte are safe in the water and learn to love swimming.

Our organization relies on membership revenue, sponsorships and charitable giving in order to provide quality coaching and instruction, maintain our excellent teaching and training locations, fund financial aid programs and staff education, and explore new ways to connect with our community.

Please consider including a small donation with your registration and supporting the nearly 50 full-time employees, 120 part-time employees and volunteers as we all work towards accomplishing SwimMAC's Mission: Empowering young people to be champions in life, through excellence in swimming.

Course Distance: 200 YARD SWIM – 8 MILE BIKE – 2 MILE RUN

TRIATHLON (Swim, bike, and run and relay option):

Swim: Your event kicks off with a 200 yard swim in the indoor pool of the Harris YMCA. Swimmers will be self seeded according to the swim ability chart. Volunteers will be on hand to assist with lining up for the swim. You will be provided with a swim cap if you choose to wear it. After the swim, you'll experience the exhilaration of exiting the pool to the sound of cheers as you make your way to the transition area.

Bike: The bike is 8 miles on a 2 loop course. The bike course showcases the beautiful South Park area of Charlotte. It begins with a nice downhill section on Quail Hollow Road. The bike course has 5 major right-hand turns and includes Gleneagles Rd, Park Rd, and Sharon Rd.

Run: The majority of the run course keeps runners on the YMCA campus and close to the spectators. It’s an out-and-back course that includes quiet neighborhood roads. The great thing is that you’ll be able to share the energy with your fellow athletes as you approach the finish line!

Finish line party: Celebrate with your family and friends and take in your accomplishment!
