I will be leading a brick session this Thursday. We will meet at Taylor's Pub behind Marlay park at 6pm sharp. The bike will be on the roads behind Marlay, with Transition and run in Marlay itself at the back gate. Please being runners for the run of the bike and transition practice. Please post if you plan on coming along so I can gauge numbers.
Regards
Helen

I'd like to say I'll be there, but 6 sharp will be cutting it tight with getting out of work and over there then. Put me as tentative for now please Helen. Is it possible that these sessions can be at a later time going forward, say 7, as I would be able to make those then  |

Is it possible that these sessions can be at a later time going forward, say 7, as I would be able to make those then We will start the session at 6.30pm NOT 6pm as posted earlier. The session will be along an approximate 3km route between Marlay park and towards Tibradden. It will involved bike laps, with quick transition to run off the bike ( in Marlay) and repeat a few times to work on quick transitions and speed work. This is the route we will be doing- Please note the MEETING LOCATION IS THE BACK GATE OF MARLAY PARK ON COLLEGE ROAD), which is slightly different to start point on the map in link below. This is the road parallel to the M50. If you are driving, you can park in the car park at that entrance. Brick route- bikeRegards Helen |

Thanks Helen. Dumb question - do we bring locks for the bikes and where do we leave the runners?

The leader of the session stays with the gear. You set up your transition, so once you get in from your bike, you have your runners waiting for you and you leave your bike/helmet/cycle shoes there. The idea is to practice the transitions as similar as possible to the race. The leaders of the sessions are all very experienced and have done a lot of races. Feel free to ask them for tips and tricks (got a few good ones off Phil Smith  ) for transitions and setups. |
