Our 7th annual World Swim Day event was one for the books! Swimmers from all over the world went for a swim and spent time reflecting on their love of the water.
This year we offered free swim workouts in the MySwimPro app. Swimmers of all levels came together during World Swim Day weekend, logging thousands swim workouts and raising funds for water safety organizations!
