That feels pretty fitting for Brute Squad: take on something difficult, push through it, and come out stronger on the other side.</p> <p>Or, in our case, <strong>become a Brute.</strong></p> <p>Starting November 1, there are two easy ways to complete your Brute:</p> <ul data-spread="false"> <li> <p><strong>During a DAM workout:</strong> Sign up on the Brute Squad sheet at the podium at Civic and let your coach know you’re taking it on.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>During weekend lap swim:</strong> No sign-up needed. Just show up, grab a lane if one is available, and go for it.</p> </li> </ul> <p>You can choose the <strong>Full Brute or Brute Light</strong>, and remember that you can complete either version competitively or modify it to fit your ability. You don’t have to be an IM swimmer to participate.</p> <p>We’ll keep preparing you in workouts through the end of October. Then starting November 1, it’s time to head upstream.</p> <p><strong>Take on the challenge. Become the Dragon. Become a Brute.</strong></p> https://www.damfast.org/event-6885621 https://www.damfast.org/event-6885621
