The two Shea Challenge Events are the “Sprint No-Brainer” – 50m Fly, Back, Breast, Free plus a novelty 100m IM; and the “Iron Swimmer Glutton” – 200m Fly, Back, Breast plus 400m IM and 1500m Free. Swimmers completing these challenges earn a commemorative t-shirt. All swimmers were welcomed to a post-meet social at Italian Village.
