With the Reading YMCA turning 166 in 2024, we are setting the bar high this year to see if you can swim a lap for every year the Y has been around!

Whether that be doggy paddling twice a week or freestyle every morning, we want to see if you have what it takes to complete this challenge and help celebrate the Reading YMCA’s 166 birthday!

The 100/166 Mile Swim Challenges are a year-long challenge that can be done anytime during open lap swim time.
