Converted to kilometres we are 651kms short of Adelaide by air. Thirteen swimmers have their results recorded with some yet to forward their results. We are behind the schedule set last year so I encourage swimmers to participate in the program. A good entry point would be the Swim for Memory,event coming up; perhaps a 400 or 800km swim. The Vorgee Endurance 1000 program was launched as a national event over 20 years ago as the Aerobics program. The program is designed to encourage people to compete in distances from 400 metres to 60 minutes duration in a variety of strokes.

The total number of swims (gaining points) that can be completed is 62 – broken down into:

• 25 individual 400m swims
• 25 individual 800m swims
• 3 x 1500m swims
• 3 x 30 minute swims
• 3 x 45 minute swims
• 3 x 60 minute swims

To test your endurance swimming and add to our Stadium Masters points score this year, members are available for timing on Thursday mornings between 9.30am and 10.30am and Friday afternoon between 12.30pm and 1.30pm before the Coaching Program starts.
