Potomac River in Prince George's County, Maryland

Roughly 50 swimmers attend a Wave One Swimming "Sunday Sunrise" practice swim along a 500-yard course on the Potomac River in National Harbor, Md., on Aug. 6, 2022. Every Thursday evening and Sunday morning in the spring and summer, between 40 and 80 swimmers from the group plunge into the Potomac River to practice open water swimming. But just a few miles away, in Washington, D.C., swimming in the Potomac and Anacostia rivers has been banned for the last 50 years. (Photo by Caroline Grass/Chesapeake Bay Program)
