Known as the most prominent swimrun event producer in North America, SwimRun USA's Casco Bay Islands event in Portland, Maine will celebrate its third running this August.

Your Weapon To Conquer The Cold
We’ve pushed the limits of cold water swimming with our THERMAL line of gear and the first ever THERMAL wetsuit two years ago. For 2018, we’re pleased to introduce the THERMAL Reaction to our wetsuit line-up. Fully lined with our mid-weight zirconium jersey for enhanced protection in frigid temperatures, it has all the warmth of the previous version, at a more affordable price. DIVE IN
Introducing The New HELIX
It wasn’t easy improving the world’s most renowned wetsuit. Two years of prototype refinement, followed by a year of product testing, has produced our fastest suit yet. Built using all new lift technology, the 2018 HELIX puts every swimmer in an efficient downhill swimming position.

Maximizing the r10: Fit
The r10 is unlike any suit you have ever worn before. We've used unique, specially developed fabrics, combined with ground-breaking technology to design our fastest and most compressive suit ever.

The 2016 edition of the IRONMAN World Championships packed plenty of excitement and drama highlighted for us by blueseventy athlete Heather Jackson’s 3rd place finish. Jackson, an American professional triathlete based out of Bend, Oregon, was 5th here last year. “I really went out there shooting for top ten, but hoping to defend my 5th place spot, so to improve on that 5th place is surreal.
