Winter Training Groups
Peggie Slavin
I wanted to pass along information on training groups Jeff and I enjoy that might give you some motivation and variety over the winter months.
K2J FITNESS - There are run clinics based here in Barrhaven. My pool lane mate, Judy Andrew Piel, and her coaching partner J.R. Tremblay offer a variety of clinics based at Barrhaven Source for Sports. They are training groups for NCM (starting this week), Boston and more.
CYCLEFIT CHICKS Women Only Cycling Club – I joined this group last year. It’s a great way for the women to learn bike handling skills and improve. This year there is also a team option (which I’ve joined). The club is led by Sylvie Daoust, Level 2 Cycling Coach and owner of Cyclefit. The team members will have additional coaching by Jim Glover, Level 4 cycling coach. There is a 10% discount if you join before March 1st. I went out for a team session at Euro-Sport last night. It was fun to be able to do a ‘virtual’ group ride with Jane Yardley from NMSC S-Group. http://www.cyclefit.ca/CLUB_roadcyclefit.html http://www.euro-sports.ca/index.php/Main_Page
VIRGINIA CYCLING CAMP- Jeff and I are going for a week long cycling camp in Virginia the week after Easter. It’s being organized by Sylvie and Jim and should be a lot of fun! It’s primarily for Cyclefit Chicks members (and significant others) but if anyone is interested there may be an extra spot. Let me know.
RIDEAU LAKES – Registration is open and there are a few groups of NMSC members going. If anyone is looking to join a group get in touch with me.
