2020 Open Water Virtual Grand Slam

SwimDogs
With most open water events either cancelled or postponed for the summer, checkout the 2020 Open Water Virtual Grand Slam! Only three days into registration, we have 30 swimmers signed up from around the world including Sweden, Germany, Australia, Canada and the USA (even Alaska). It's a bargain at $15. Without going into too much detail in this thread, the aim of this event is to gradually start swimming again and test yourself when youâ€Tmre able to get back into the water regularly; hence the STAGES: Sprint (800M), Olympic (1500M), Half (1.9K) and Full (3.8K). There is a wetsuit and a skins category. Registration is LIVE at Club Assistant. Just click on the link below to learn more and sign up: forums.usms.org/attachment.php ASSISTANT REGISTRATION
