A Once-a-Year Special Distance Workout
Northern Nevada Aquatics – Our Annual Endurance Challenge is Sunday February 23, 2025, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm at Moana Springs Aquatic Center.
SNM swimmers are invited to participate in this youth swim team fundraising event ($20 fee).
100 x 100 yards on 100 second interval.
If 100’s are not your cup of tea, you can do 75’s, 50’s or even 25’s. If you don’t want to do them all, that is ok too. Just do your best.
Would you like to use equipment like fins, snorkel, paddles, etc.? Sure, why not!
There will be fun music while you are hanging out waiting for the 100 seconds to come around and some snacks during the 10-minute break. Ask SNM swimmer Erik Scalise, Head Coach of NNA, at an SNM morning workout or call him at 775-331-0123 for more information.
