The 2026 VBLA Ocean Swim Series 3K or Mile Swim is the second of three races on the VBLA Ocean Swim Series Calendar. The 3K moves the distance from the 1 Mile range closer to 2 miles while the 1-Mile option can test improvement from the first race (although every race is different in open water - that's the beauty of it!) The VBLA Swim Series is meant for experienced ocean racers and novice open water swimmers alike. Come find out how much fun it is to race without lines to guide you, rather a community of motivated swimmers ready to race and enjoy open water fun together!
