"Race The Legends" - RESULTS

"Race The Legends"

Imagine being able to play and interact with the greatest athletes to ever compete. Michael Jordan, Messi, and Tiger. These names constantly push boundaries and define their sports.

At “Race The Legends” that day dream becomes a reality. Line up on a beautiful sandy beach and swim open water against some of the greatest swimmers of all time. A unique once in a lifetime experience you don’t want to miss!

The Global Swim Series has set up the Race the Legends event so that swimmers from around the world have a chance to take to the water side by side with the greatest swimmers of past and present.

The best way to get motivated, inspired, and a fantastic experience to cross off your bucket list.

To cap off all of the excitement, a raffle will be held for a few select spots to meet the legends after the race. This meet and greet is an experience that you won’t find anywhere else. There will be limited photo sessions prior to the race as well, so be sure to get your tickets!

For those looking to take their swimming to the next level, several of the legends will be hosting a multi and single day “Legends Swim Camp”. These up close and personal lessons will take place the week prior and immerse you in coaching and hanging out with the heroes of the sport.

All Race The Legends participants will be entered in a random draw to have dinner with the legends themselves. An unprecedented event like this has never been done before so sign up now as each camp is limited in space!
