This event allows wetsuits; however, per the policy of this database, only unassisted, non-wetsuit finishers are listed here. Unfortunately, the timing company Lin-Mark Sports has not consistently distinguished between wetsuit finishers and unassisted (skin) swimmers in past years. Years that are not properly categorized are not included here.
