Youth Triathlon Training Camps – Summer 2011

Youth Triathlon Training Camps – Summer 2011

These half day training camps are designed to introduce youth to the fun and exciting sport of triathlon.  As one of the fastest growing sports in America, triathlon offers a great way to stay healthy and fit in a safe way.  The combination of various types of cardio training coupled with the strength built during swim, bike and run workouts are a scientifically proven method to build high levels of fitness.

All levels of participants from first timers to seasoned junior athletes are welcome.  Athletes will work on drills, games and workouts in all 3 sports (swim, bike, run) and the all important ‘transitions’ from segment to segment.

Nationally certified and experienced coaches from Experience Triathlon Coaching Services will share their expertise and mentor each child on their journey toward a healthy lifestyle.

Participants will be expected to have a basic swim stroke and successfully swim one pool length (25 yards) without assistance.  Each athlete will be required to bring a swim suit, goggles, towel, bike, bike helmet, running shoes, workout shorts, t-shirt and a water bottle filled with water or an energy drink to each training session.
