The Sydney Harbour Swim (Sydney Harbour International Invitational Marathon) was a 30 km professional marathon swimming race held in Sydney, Australia beginning on 10 November 1991 sanctioned by the International Marathon Swimming Association.
History
The inaugural 1991 race was won by Shelley Taylor-Smith who was then crowned the overall champion for both men and women on the 1991 International Marathon Swimming Association professional marathon swimming circuit. The race and its outcome later led to the separation of global rankings and equal prize money.
