Give It A Tri 2004
The GGTC Tri & Give Training Program!
Welcome to the Golden Gate Triathlon Club's Third Annual Tri & Give
Program! GGTC and Tri More Fitness would like to help you achieve
completing a triathlon while simultaneously helping the community! A
majority of the programs fee,
minus some administrative costs, will be donated to the Special Olympics
of Northern California. Thanks to GGTC members, coaches and participants,
we have raised over $10,000.00 and shared our passion of triathlon and
sports with others.
Tri & Give is an ten-week training program designed for those with
varied athletic abilities to ideally compete in the Wildflower Olympic
distance race. If you don't have a Wildflower race slot which is currently
sold-out, no worries-you can train with the group and register for a
different race during this time period. Coaches Neil Fraser and Laura
Esterline of Tri More Fitness, will head up the program which is designed
to fit your level of fitness and ability. The program will include three
coached group workouts per week in each of the disciplines--swim, bike and
run. Additional clinics, e-mail support, and GGTC volunteers will fuel
your passion, encourage your commitment, and answer everything you ever
wanted to know about triathlons but were afraid to ask.
The eight-week program will begin February 22, 2004 and run through May 4,
2004. Individuals will be responsible for purchasing their own equipment
(we can help show you the options), and purchasing your race slot.
It's highly recommended that you:
- are able to swim a minimum of 200 yards (4 laps)
- own and know how to ride a bike
- have the ability to run/jog a few miles
The fee is $300 for GGTC members and $350 for non-members. Your entry into
the program will include a one-year full membership to GGTC. This gains
you access to various club workouts and numerous sponsor discounts. See
the website for more information.
To learn more specifics about the program, please come to the
informational meeting on January 20th at the Marina Sports Basement
meeting room, at 6:30 p.m. We will answer all your questions and explain
more about the program in detail.
*Registration will begin online Wednesday, January 21st.
