Training
The club puts on weekly training throughout the year including; swim, cycle, run, ‘brick’ (a combination of one or more disciplines in the same session) and strength & conditioning training sessions.
Most of these sessions are done in six to eight week blocks and some come at an additional cost to cover coach and facility hire. The club always tries to run the sessions as non-profit in order to keep costs to a minimum. Non-coached sessions in free venues, for example, the Sunday cycle, summer brick sessions at the Moat or non-coach-led open-water swimming in the Barrow are always free.
Non-members who have not previously had Triathlon Ireland (TI) membership are welcome to join us for three training sessions on a guest basis, otherwise people taking part in club training sessions will need at minimum, a TI training membership. Have a look at our membership information page to find out more about club and TI membership.
Training is hard work, we take it seriously, but joining the club means you can suffer in good company. Our sessions are sociable and fun with plenty of advice and encouragement on offer along with a healthy dose of friendly competition.
Training in a group can also help to overcome nerves, there’s a lot to be said for the ‘we’re all in this together’ vibe created by our New-to-Tri/Back-to-Tri programme. This is usually held around April and May, often in order to get people ready for their first TriAthy and hopefully for a continued journey in triathlon.
