All athletes will need a wristband, which they receive at registration, to enter the park for free on Friday and Saturday. If they do not have a wristband or need to get in before Friday, it will cost $6 per person. 

Swim Safety 
If the water temperature is 55 degrees or below on race morning, all athletes will be required to wear wetsuits.

  • Water temperature is expected to be in the mid 60s in April. The exact temperature will be posted closer to race date.
  • USAT anticipates a wetsuit legal swim.   
  • Swim socks or neoprene booties are legal for the Collegiate Sprint and Nationals races
  • Athletes may want to wear ear plugs and two swim caps for the swim depending on the temperature (USAT will provide athletes with ONE swim cap that must be visibly worn during the swim) 
  • If you have a latex allergy, please let USAT staff know and we will provide you with a non-latex swim cap.
