Tasked with the impossible

How do you handle a task that seems impossible? I'm an instructor, and I've been given one year to teach a course that normally takes 2–3 years to complete. Am I being set up for failure, are my students being set up for failure, or the hardest working year of our lives? I'm trying to break up the course in manageable chunks, but I don't know if this will be enough. Am I wrong in thinking that I have been given an unattainable goal?
