The Rough Water Challenge Series is our school event held 3 times a year. It is open to all swimmers as we have partnered with Let’s Do This to enable us to welcome swimmers from all over the world to take part. It’s your opportunity to participate in some friendly competition and challenges that keep you swimming for a whole month! The swim challenges change each week to push you to swim a bit further, perhaps faster and overall to get fitter. We reward you every step of the way with fantastic series merchandise, each successful challenge completed earns you a prize. Plus there are amazing spot prizes from swimming gurus TYR.
Inspiration
The Rough Water Challenge Series was created by our Head Open Water Coach and Safety Lead as a way to encourage our swimmers, no matter where you are on your open water or swimming journey to achieve something great! The key difference between this series and other open water events is that the idea is for you to keep swimming for a whole month! The challenges vary from week to week and there’s something for every level of swimmer from casual dippers, beginners to advanced endurance swimmers. You earn rewards by sticking with the series, participating in something each week then looking back over your month and realising what you have achieved!
Series Schedule
Swim a bit further each week, swim more throughout the month than you’ve done before. Try a new distance… each challenge you complete earns you another reward! If you enter the total distance challenges then every swim you do adds up to that magic total.
