Hi all
As you might be aware the club traditionally held its summer brick sessions (bike and run) in the Phoenix Park. Unfortunately it has been confirmed to us, following a case being put to the OPW, that no official cycling training is being permitted in the park this year. Whilst this is a loss for the club we have put in place plans to ensure we can continue to provide these training sessions over the summer months.
We have secured Coorkagh Park for 7 Thursday evening sessions over the summer (dates set out below). Corkagh Park is a great resource and these will be BTC only sessions, with a choice of doing a brick session or a bike interval session if you wish. It is also a great resource for practicing bike handling and fine tuning transition skills.
The remaining sessions will be split between brick sessions, meeting at the back of Marlay Park, and some run only hill interval sessions with a focus on preparation for Hell of the West triathlon in June. (dates set out below)
We would hope to see as many club members as possible attending. Brick sessions are open to all club members' regardless of your level of ability.
There will be no official club sessions on Thursday's following our Phoenix Park duathlons, so if you are not marshaling these events you should take the opportunity to race in them.
