From the Organizer
Support the swimmers of the Aspen Swim Club in the 4th edition of our charity swim race! Take off from the blocks in a timed 50 yard freestyle swim. New for this year is a 200 freestyle relay option. Swim with your friends or make new friends to swim with. All are welcome to participate, no swimming skill required!
Think you are fast? The fastest individual male and female competitors will qualify for the Fastest Swimmer on the Roaring Fork, a head-to-head elimination competition. Entry pricing varies based upon age. There will also be prizes for the top finishers in each age-group--ages 13-19, 20-39, 40-59, & 60+. Sorry--no entries under age 13 can be accepted.
One entry will allow participation in either or both of the events, so no need to sign up twice.

About This Sport

Swimming events drop you into something that demands navigation, feel, and focus all at once. It's a sport that rewards the quietly competitive — the ones who do the work in the water before anyone's watching.
