Join Rogue Valley Masters swim team and Oregon Masters at beautiful Applegate Lake, just 40 minutes from Medford, Oregon for the USMS 10K national championship in clear, warm (73-75F) water and air in the mid-80s, surrounded by Southern Oregon mountains! The course is a 2500 M loop, with an in-water feed station at the start/finish area. Saturday starts with the 10K, followed 10 minutes later by a 5K and 2.5K, and Sunday contains a 1500 M swim followed by the popular 3 x 500 M pursuit relay. Camping is available at the lake, or B&Bs and hotels abound in the neighboring communities, such as Jacksonville, Ashland, and Medford. A hearty post-race lunch is included for race participants; spectator lunches may be purchased with registration. The Southern Oregon region is a popular vacation destination, with plentiful outdoor recreation (rivers, lakes, mountains and the Oregon coast nearby), wineries, and cultural activities, such as the Britt Festival and the world-renowned Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Access is easy via Interstate 5 or by flying into the Medford airport (MFR) and driving to the lake. We look forward to hosting you!
