Washington's Crossing: Swim Across the Potomac River

National Harbor, Maryland

Sunday June 2, 2019


The 9th annual Washington's Crossing is the only open water race in Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia that spans the width of the Potomac River. The race begins aboard a Potomac Riverboat water taxi motoring to the Jones Point intersection of all three territories. Then the swimmers jump into the river and prepare to start.  At the sound of the starting horn, swimmers begin their journey approximately 2.3 kilometers back to the National Harbor beach lagoon to be greeted by the sculpture, the Awakening.  The course is marked with large buoys that guide you to your destination. Washington's Crossing is limited to 130 swimmers. 

Prices increase as race approaches. Next increase is May 30. Make history and register now!
