DAM Hosts USMS Speedo One Hour Swim Postal Championship!

Each year the USMS One Hour Postal Championship draws over 2500 competitors to take a simple challenge: swim for one hour to see how far you can go.

DAM has won the large team division of this championship 5 times since 1998 (1998, 1999, 2009, 2010, 2011). In 2012, DAM was unseated by New England Masters, a multi-state team with over 1900 members. This year DAM aims to take back its title!

In 2011, 340 DAM swimmers tallied 1, 185,640 yards. To put it another way, that's ...

23712 x 50
If you did those 50's on 1:00, it'd take nearly 16.5 days

So, who's up for the challenge?

The event runs throughout the month of January, 2013. Here is the meet sheet and entry form.
