We started a New Triathlon Club!!
I have always wanted to run my own Triathlon Club ever since I started triathlons in 2015 and nows the time I have finally done it.
The reason I wanted to start the local triathlon club was to help get more people into the sport, educate other athletes on how to train efficiently, safely and progressively, bring local athletes together to train/ socialise and race with one another, join with other local clubs to create a fun and inspiring environment and build a strong try race team to take on local races from sprint to full distance triathlons
Currently we run various sessions ( Subject to the Season)
-Monday night City loops ( Interval session) joining with local run club MARAFUN
-Saturday morning Brick sessions which involves a hour lead bike, quick transition then into the local park run
-Coached swim session at Swim house ( A brand new facility in Lichfield) Get in touch if you are looking to join for a coached swim session 🙂
During the winter months the training will switch to more indoor Zwift meet ups, Cannock chase mountain bike sessions, coached swim sessions and Long off road group runs.
We have some great companies onboard providing discounts to their services/ products including
Alpha sports running shop
Hydraform Compression wear
Kom Fuel
Amp Human
EAD Massage
These discounts can be accessed through the club WhatsApp group 🙂
We are currently building a race calendar for the remainder of the 2022 season and into 2023 where we will go as a team and represent the club. Encouraging other team members and building new friendships
In the coming months we hope to branch off and start coaching juniors and the aspiring athletes of the future
Lots happening and some exciting ideas in the pipeline!
If you would like to get involved within the club from a athlete side to volunteer side please email- Lichfield_triclub@outlook.com
