      12 WEEK INTERMEDIATE TRIATHLON TRAINING CLINIC RUN BY CHESS AT TRI-CHIX AND OTHER FACILITATORS FOR TRI FOR A CURE ATHLETES AND OPEN TO OTHER ATHLETES AS WELL.

INFORMATIONAL MEETING FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 2008 AT 6:30 P.M. AT PEAK PERFORMANCE MULTISPORT

FIRST LECTURE WEDNESDAY APRIL 23, 2008 AT 6:30 P.M. AT PEAK PERFORMANCE MULTISPORT

I’ve designed this clinic for more seasoned athletes with a good fitness base, we will focus on honing skills and increasing speed within each discipline, and focus on racing skills, including transitions. This clinic is designed for women who already have good base fitness but would like to increase performance in a sprint triathlon or try to do an Olympic distance triathlon in the later season, like the Urban Epic Tri-Maine race at the end of July or the Lobsterman Race mid September.

My experience includes pending USAT coaching certification, 2 Ironman finishes, 4 seasons of triathlon racing and a background in road, mountain and X-Terra racing.

This course will offer 3 lectures, 4-5 group training sessions and 3 months of individual training schedules.

The lectures will be: ‘Tri 101’ a refresher for most of you but a good one – including nutrition for training. ‘Light bike maintenance and safety’ – simple things you should know to be independent on a ride. ‘Race 101’ – again a refresher – including race day nutrition and some of the psychological issues surrounding racing.

The group training will be: Pool swim assessment with facilitators including Larissa Bodde Division 1 swimmer and now master swim coach. Open water swim at Crystal Lake – water entry, group swimming tactics, sighting, exiting. Open water swim on the race course with a like tide – getting to T-1 Bike/run training at the course – practicing T-2 – and some advanced bike handling skills. One bonus training session as group desires. Discounts on bike fit sessions with Rob Smith.

Space is limited to 20 women

$200.00 per person
