2020 RESULTS MEASURED IN YARDS
THE SWIM DISTANCE CHALLENGE
A SWIM FOR PRIDE, NOT PRIZE EVENT! The “Swim Distance Challenge” is a competition within yourself to accomplish something in the pool you never thought possible, OR to swim a distance you haven’t done in a long, long time... Other than the official finisher’s “Certificate of Distance," the only award is the rewarding experience you will have with your fellow event participants. This is not a race! *Minimum distance is 5,000 yards* *4 hours max time* |
