Hi Team,

 

The TTT simply has too many things in the works to wait for the next newsletter before spilling the beans! Read below for all the TTT goodness!

 

 

Run Clinic: Saturday January 16 at 8:30 AM (Old Battleground– New Garden Road Parking Lot)

 

Clinic will start at parking lot at Battleground Park for quick intro on things to focus on during run to GDS.  At GDS there will be education and a track workout with drills to emphasize technique and reduce risk of injury.  Return run to Battleground Park will be a good way to work on skills learned.  This FREE clinic is open to all so bring a friend

 

Swim Clinic: Sunday January 24 from 3:30 till 5 PM (Greensboro Aquatic Center)

 

Given by level II US Master Swimmers coach Simon Cloutier, this clinic will focus on swim form for triathletes. It will address some of the most common form inefficiencies and provide drill options to resolve them.  The clinic is FREE to TTT members. Non-Members will be asked for a $15 donation. Please arrive sufficiently early to be ready to swim at the advertised start time.

 

 

Cycling Skills and Group Ride: Saturday February 13 at 2 PM (Northern Guilford Highschool)

 

Developing good bike handling skills is an essential aspect to being confortable in a group road ride setting.  This Free clinic is open to all and will discuss proper group ride ethiquette and practice various drills to help improve handling skills.  Those that want can then participate in a group ride in which we’ll practice riding in a small paceline, drafting, and pulling.

 

 

TTT 70.3 Group Training

 

Still plenty of room available for those seeking to join our 70.3 Training group! Starting in February, this 16 wk program is perfectly timed for anyone doing IM 70.3 Chattanooga or Raleigh.  Deadline to sign up is January 17th. You can sign up by mailing in the attached form.

Salem Lake group run: Saturday January 23 at 8 AM (Salem Lake Marina)

 

Meet in the parking lots just prior to the marina parking lot. This 7 mile loop is great fun. Will be able to split up into pace groups run the loop around the lake. Water and other drinks will be provided. Join us for breakfast or coffee afterwards.  Open to all.

Hi Team,

I mis-typed the date for the swap meet. It will be at Fleet Feet Greensboro on Friday February 12th @ 7 PM

In addition to that Fleet Feet is offering a 15% discount!!! So if you can't find what you need from the used collection, you might be able to get a great deal on a new one!

Invite your friends! This is an open invitation. 

Thanks,
Simon
