WINTER Open Water Training Program

  • With SwimRVA’s all-deep 50m pool we set a buoyed course and work on all aspects of open water swimming.  We simulate an open water experience in the comfort and safety of a pool setting.
  • The program progresses over the course of 11 weeks where we work on open water skills, endurance, and technique.  Due to the open water setting, we can adjust the workout for nearly any level swimmer.
  • $229 for non-members (FREE for all Hammerhead members)

Down River Rip

  • Ready for a fast swim? Swimmers for the 4.4-mile event start from Watkins Landing and swim straight down river, with the current, to Robious Landing finish.  Great way to start the season off fast.
