2010 Triathlon Clinic brought to you by:
March 29 to July 13th Overview This clinic is designed to help out both beginner and experienced athletes. You will receive information during lectures, skill practice, triathlon specific training and a training plan. Experienced athletes have the option of participating in the entire clinic, or, the lecture series only, or, the training sessions only depending on their needs. We recommend beginners attend both the lectures and training sessions. The training plan is set up to train you for the Peach City Classic Olympic or Sprint Distance race. We recommend the sprint distance race for beginners (750m swim, 20km bike, 5km run). Lecture Component - Monday Evenings, 6-7pm, Penticton High School (to be confirmed) A series of ten lectures during the first two-thirds of the clinic will cover all the triathlon basics such as: · Triathlon Equipment. · Race nutrition and hydration. · Race preparation and execution. · Triathlon specific training and much more…
Training Sessions - Tuesday Evenings, 6-7pm Are once a week and include swim, bike, run and triathlon specific skill training. We also do a number of triathlon specific workouts on real race courses to add excitement but also to properly prepare you for your race. And, we include an early season open water swim in Oliver. Because we are training on different courses, these sessions occur at various locations in Penticton and Summerland. This variety is what makes this clinic fun and worthwhile. We have put a lot of thought into offering a clinic full of fun, challenging and meaningful training exercises.
Training Plan In each clinic you will also receive a training plan based on your ability and race. It is not necessary to attend every training session in order to be ready for the race since you will be training on your own as well. If you are interested in coaching beyond a set plan or looking for more team training opportunities then please review our Individual and Team coaching programs. Our Team Program includes full access to this clinic at no extra charge.
