The wait is over. The final Beyond The Breakers 2026 schedule is here!

On November 14th, open water swimmers, triathletes, coaches and crew from all over are coming together in Waltham, MA for a full day built around the sport we love. We're kicking things off at 9AM with a keynote from 1984 Olympic gold medalist and NBC Olympic broadcaster Rowdy Gaines, and the energy doesn't let up from there.

Across three rooms and 15 presentations, you'll hear from Olympian Joe Maloy on how to use the pack to your advantage, shark researcher Dr. Greg Skomal on what's really swimming beneath you, and experts on cold adaptation, shoulder health, nutrition, kayak support, open water safety and so much more. To close out the day, Sarah Thomas, the first person to swim the English Channel four times without stopping, joins Elaine Howley and Suzanne Martin for First Ladies Club: What It Takes to Do What's Never Been Done.

Whether you're getting ready for your first open water race or planning something nobody has ever tried, there's a session on this schedule with your name on it. Take a look at the full day below, then check each room's lineup so you can map out exactly where you want to be.

See you Beyond The Breakers!

Today, October 8, Alec Fraser, Jamie Meehan and Mike Brock will be hitting the open road instead of the water and starting their 1200 mile bike journey to raise critical funds for cancer research. The trio will go from Seattle to Santa Clara, California, with the goal of arriving on October 23.

They will average 63 miles per day with a total of 51,000 feet of elevation during the journey - nearly two Mt. Everests! Along the way, friends and supporters will join them for portions of the ride, turning every mile into an opportunity to make a difference -- with a goal to raise $75,000 to support a pediatric cancer research.

1,200 Miles. One Mission. $75,000 for Cancer Research.

This ride commemorate the 5th anniversary of their previous cross-country bike ride as part of Team JF and Swim Across America. They ride in memory of Julian Fraser and Shan Brock -- and this year, they also ride for their friend and man-of-many talents, George Hannigan, and for Jamie’s spectacular youngest sister, Janel Meehan. The journey will continue the fight against pediatric cancer through research at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center supported. by Swim Across America.
