AT "SwimWithTracy," CHALLENGES ARE NEVER CANCELLED!
THE FAMOUS HOLIDAY TRADITION, THE SWIM DISTANCE CHALLENGE IS IN THE BOOKS!
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*

THE HOKIE CHALLENGE |
The WHAT?! A Hokie is just another name for a turkey- (Virginia Tech fans know this) Thus, the special name for this special holiday tradition. |
|
2022 Hokie Challenge Consisted of:
*Swimming M, W, F for 2 weeks prior to Thanksgiving week (normal hours)
*Swimming 5,000 yards the Mon & Tuesday before Thanksgiving
*Completing The PieAthlon on Wednesday before Thanksgiving
(1.2 mile swim, approx 5.6 mile trainer ride on deck, 1.3 mile run on the 1/20th of a mile track above the pool.
Those distances "look like" a half Ironman/PieAthlon; Maybe next year it will be a FULL...just sayin')
(Clare Brofford, Andy Mitrey, Jenna Measelle, Toni Hare, Kim Ayars also made exceptional efforts despite family and work commitments, AND were also rewarded accordingly!)
Train Hard, Train Smart and... "Don't Sweat the Swim!"
