Marathon Swimming at the 2024 Summer Olympics.

Two-day marathon swimming (8 to 9 August) staged at Pont Alexandre III through the Seine River.


Marathon swimming is a class of open water swimming defined by long distances, at least 10 kilometers (6.21 mi). Unlike marathon foot-races which have a specifically defined distance, marathon swims vary in distance. However, one commonly used minimum definition is 10 kilometers (6.21 miles), the distance of the marathon swimming event at the Olympic Games.
