The Worland Aquatic Center is excited to announce our "Quarterly Wellness Workouts" starting in 2025! Each 3-month event will feature an accomplished athlete. Our first event, from January 2 to March 31, 2025, will challenge you to swim the English Channel.
In 1955, Florence Chadwick, the first woman to swim the Channel both ways, completed the 23-mile swim in 13 hours and 55 minutes. To participate, pay a $20 sign-up fee and purchase a 3-month pass (or a daily swim pass if you're not a member). Swim on your schedule and record your yardage and time on the board at the end of each day. You have 3 months to swim 46 miles or as far as possible.
The top 3 participants with the most yards and fastest times will win prizes. All participants will receive a snazzy T-shirt and access to necessary swimming equipment. Call the facility to sign up and for more information.
Get ready to get in shape and swim the English Channel with us!
