The 2024 Swim Distance Challenge is now called
The Xmas Challenge
Sunday, December 14

​A SWIM FOR PRIDE, NOT PRIZE EVENT!
True to the same philosophy of the traditional holiday Distance Challenge,
will be a more apropos, spicy holiday workout themed around the famous Christmas carol, The 12 Days of Christmas.
It will still be a competition within yourself to accomplish an extraordinary distance but it will also be sprinkled with pace work and speed and fun sets.  


Other than the official finisher’s “Certificate of Distance," the only award is the rewarding experience you will have with your fellow event participants. *Minimum distance required. See participants' pack.
