The saturday training will be given by Padraig Marrey (Ireland's highest qualified cycling coach). The emphasis of the day will be on cycling, group riding, bikes skills, specific time trailing for triathlon and general bike fitness. Padraig will also give all participants a triathlon training programme for the next 12 weeks. Padraigh also participates in triathlons regularly and has vast experience in working with top level cyclists and triathletes including our own Mark Scanlon. Padraig will be assisted by Mary Mulcrone (Coach). The format of the day will be both practical and class room based workshops.Sunday's coaching will be given by Jay Daley where the emphasis will be on nutrition and strength training. Again it will be triathlon and cycling specific. The day will include group training and emphasising what we were doing on the Saturday. Advice will be given on bike positioning.
Due to the inclement weather we will be watching the forecast carefully. The weekend will definitely be going ahead and if the roads are still bad or if its too wet all the practical sessions will take place indoors on turbo trainers. A number of spares have been sourced but let the club cycle officer (mail adress below) know if you can bring your own.
The cost of the weekend will be €50-60 and the venue will be either the mercy gym in Sligo or the teeling centre in Colloney. For more information or to book a place contact: casey.colm@gmail.com or 0876811197
