Fridays Practice: Coach George’s New Year 100×100 Swim Challenge

Join coach George this Friday as he does the annual 100 x 100 swim challenge. Friday’s practice is a team-wide endurance challenge built around one simple idea: steady 100s, good vibes, and a lot of swimming. This is not a race. It is a shared effort, paced correctly, with every group jumping in at their level.
How it works

4:30 PM – Senior Group and Advance Age Group kick things off together. Continuous 100-yard repeats, controlled pace, long focus.
5:45 PM – Age Group 1 jumps in and completes about one hour of 100s scaled to ability and consistency.
6:15 PM – Age Group 2 joins and completes about 1 hour 15 minutes of 100s depending on training level.

Age group 1&2 will do their regular dry-land warm up before they jump in.

What makes it fun

Everyone is swimming the same challenge, just on different clocks.
Athletes enter and exit like a relay of energy through the pool.
Coaches manage send-offs, breaks, and pacing so athletes stay strong and successful.
Music, momentum, and team atmosphere carry the session.

Why we do it

Builds aerobic fitness and repeatability.
Teaches pacing, discipline, and staying relaxed under volume.
Starts the year with a memorable, confidence-building team effort.

Swimmers should come hydrated, fueled, and ready to swim steadily for their assigned block. The goal is consistency, teamwork, and finishing proud - not emptying the tank.
