SmartyPants Fall Challenge

Is your Turkey Trot canceled this year? Try the Fall Fitness Challenge, a 1-mile swim that takes place between November 15-30, which is the third event in the SmartyPants Vitamins USMS Fitness Series.

Whether you're just getting into swimming, starting back into it after a COVID forced break from the pool, pushing to see how fast you can go, or just wanting to donate to the USMS COVID-19 Relief Program for clubs, the Fall Fitness Challenge is the perfect event for you to finish the year strong. The Fall Fitness Challenge can be done in any manner desired: straight through, as a member of a relay, or even with fins. 

If you need help preparing for this swim, we have six-week training plans for all types of swimmers.

Swimmers who cannot swim safely are encouraged to participate with a 30-minute dryland workout. Visit our COVID-19 resource page for more information, articles, and workout suggestions.
