The Navy SEAL Foundation New York City SEAL Swim is a multi-sport open-water event that unites former SEALs, veterans, and first responders from across the country. Starting at the Empty Sky Memorial in Liberty State Park, participants swim the Hudson River with stops at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island for honor workouts, then finish with an American flag run to the World Trade Center to pay tribute to those lost on 9/11, Extortion 17, and all who serve.
