Have you ever thought of doing a Triathlon but didn’t know how to get started? Or were intimidated by all of the details? Do you love to run and bike, but are afraid of swimming?
Our Begin to Tri training program places an emphasis on creating a fun, comfortable and motivating atmosphere for learning the fundamentals of swimming, biking, running, transitions, equipment, nutrition, mental preparation and race day planning.
Participants have their choice of participating in the Sprint Distance (.5 mile swim/14-18 bike/5K run) at the Irongirl Race, The Cazenovia Triathlon or the Delta Lake Triathlon.
The program is led by USA Triathlon Certified coaches Brendan Jackson and Denise Clark.
The program begins the first week of May and runs until mid-August
*Swim practice is conducted at the LeMoyne College Pool starting at 6:30 pm on Wednesday nights for the first seven weeks, and then transitions to the outdoor practices (alternating between Jamesville Beach and Oneida Shores locations) at 6:00 pm for the rest of the season.
*Cycling/ Running Practice starts at 7:00 am on Saturdays throughout the season.
Benefits of the program include:
- Detailed weekly training plans.
- Twice weekly group training/clinic sessions.
- Swim Instruction in both the pool and open water.
