In response to the survey the club did earlier this year, the club is going to offer a beginner triathlete training plan (BTP) that is geared towards getting you started in triathlons.
We are targeting the plan to culminate with The Lake Arrowhead Triathlon on August 18. This is a fantastic race that is put on by Inland Inferno member Josh Morey. More info on the race at http://mountainmultisport.com/.
This program will be designed for people who are completely new to the sport, or are just getting started, but everyone is welcome. It is also perfect for any friends or family members who you would like to get involved in the sport.
We will post a training plan for everyone to follow, as well as lead group
workouts. These workouts will have 3-4 experienced members to provide support and guidance to all those people participating in the program.
We will have an orientation kickoff meeting on June 3 for all those that are interested. At this meeting we will check over people's equipment and pass out the training plan.
If this sounds like something you, or someone you know is interested in, then drop me or Vivian an email and we will add you to the list.
We could also use some of the experienced members in the club to come out and share your experience. I know I learned a ton from other members when I joined the club and it's fun to pass that along to others as they are getting started.
