Second Pool Swim Term (nearly time for the sea!)

As mentioned in the previous post, the second term of the Sligo Triathlon Club swim training sessions get underway in March, with the first session on 9th March.

The sessions are in their second year and take place in the Sligo Regional Sports Complex Pool on Tuesday (10pm) and Friday (7pm) evenings.

Classes are structured in approach with both technique and fitness drills incorporated, all overseen by club swimming coaches. Stroke analysis by underwater video is carried out where swimmers strokes are analysed with club coaches at regular intervals. They build towards the triathlon summer season with weekly swims in Rosses Point beginning in May.

All levels of swimmers are welcome, we’ve had swimmers struggling to do ten lengths of the pool attend the sessions and go on to complete Olympic distance triathlons within a year.

The term lasts eight weeks. Places are very limited so please get in touch (sligocitytriathlon@gmail.com) to reserve your place.
