question on the fundies swim test....

[TSandM]

I did the Fundies swim sidestroke, and finished it in a little over ten minutes. It's not very hard. They get harder . . .

Congrats! Great job!



Unless there is a recent change in policy, it's my understanding and experience that instructor's can and do increase the swim requirement. It's best to check directly with your instructor to find out what is expected.

It's not really a problem. My issue was I didn't actually know any proper stroke technique. I actually managed over 300m (i think it was 320) in the pool today. My plan is just to swim as much as I can between now and July, which should be easy since my gym has a pool

Good luck! Enjoy your class!!

275m in 14 minutes, that is pretty easy actually (Not that I have any plans on taking said course in the near future). A front crawl will make short work of that.

I timed it today. I managed to do it in 7...

You'll be just fine! Have a great class!

Yeah, its pretty easy, you should not have any problems.

One suggestion though, do the breath-hold swim first.. then do the endurance swim..

I did the endurance first in 9min and then trying to hold your breath and swim 50ft is no joke when you are exhausted and out of breath..
