Mike's Tri Adventure

Dear Fellow Triathletes and Fitness Enthusiasts:

Following the success of the first 2009 Big Training Day, I am pleased to announce that Discomfort Zone Performance Coaching is offering a second Big Training Day this season. Taking place on Sunday March 8th, this one-day indoor triathlon clinic is a fun, social way to kickstart your training for the year, meet new people, and learn a ton of great skills you can bring to the race course this summer. Additionally, David Bialkowski will be on hand to share his skills and knowledge as a community coach, 20+ year veteran triathlete, and master bike mechanic.

I am also thrilled to announce that this training day is open to both adults and young athletes (aged 10 and up and capable of swimming 100m continuously in a pool). Throughout the day, groups will be separated based on age and ability for skill development, training and games where appropriate.

Details and a tentative itinerary are below. Athletes and parents with questions regarding this training day can contact coach Mike directly at mike@discomfortzone.com.

Live your Dreams!

Mike Coughlin
