The programme has been designed by Swim Ireland and will enable those who can swim a little to swim a mile in just 10 weeks. There is also a full training programme for a half mile option.
This programme will help improve your technique and increase your distance. Swimming in a group provides formal work out plans, organised lanes, valuable feedback, great motivation and most importantly a network of training partners.
Training will take place every Tuesday and Friday in the Crystal Sports and Leisure Centre under the guidance of a qualified swimming instructor. You can sign up for either Tuesday or Friday training but we recommend signing up for both which would be most effective for your training programme.
The cost of the programme is only €5 per session pay as you go.
Training will commence on Tuesday January 24th.
Tuesdays: 5.15 – 6.15pm & Fridays: 8-9pm
