No Classes on Sunday, March 1

Just a reminder there is no Tri Swim Clinic and no Brick Class this Sunday, March 1, due to the Indoor Triathlon.

Notes for Participants in Tri Swim Clinic

A couple of quick items for the start of the Tri Swim Clinic this Sunday:

• Please make sure you bring goggles and "Zoomer" type fins to each class. Zoomer fins have a short blade and are available at Kiefer in Zion or places which sell swim gear. Without fins, you're going to have a very hard time in class doing the drills.
• We have limited pool time, so you should plan on being on the deck and ready to swim at 7am sharp.
• The RecPlex "officially" opens at 7am, but come early and let the person at the front door/desk know you are in my class. They will let you in.
• After changing in the locker room, exit back out to the main hallway and go down to the Family Changing Room and enter the pool from there. That is the door that the lifeguards open early.
• The doors to the locker rooms will not open until after 7:00. Remember: enter through the Family Changing Room.
• Please note there is no class on Sunday, March 1 due to the indoor triathlon.

Trek & Danskin Triathlons FAQ

Two Women's Triathlons??

Yes, in 2009 there will be two women-only (and beginner friendly) races at the RecPlex in Pleasant Prairie, WI. On July 12, our facility will host the new Trek Women's Triathlon series race. The Danskin triathlon, which has traditionally been in July, has moved to September 27. Danskin is now part of the Danskin SheROX Triathlon series.

How are the races different??

Practically, not much at all. Both races will be on the exact same swim, bike, and run courses, and will be based at the RecPlex.

How will your training differ for the two races?

Once again, not much at all. Our classes and clinics will use similar training principles and we will practice on the courses both races use. Everything in the Prep Camp will be applicable to both races.
