Spring & Summer 2010

The spring and summer workout schedule is lighter than the winter training schedule. Having already built our base, its race season and everyone is at different stages of racing and recovery. While group activities continue, Coach J provides us with a summer racing schedule that can be modified to suit each member's needs.

May & early June: The Tuesday night duathlon series at Birds Hill Park (see www.triathlon.mb.ca for more info) replaces our speed/track workout.

June-Aug: Tuesday is a group bike, generally departing from the Roblin Shell station at 7pm. Thursday evenings we have a track workout at Grant Park Track at 7pm.  Sat is a long bike workout at Birds Hill Park at 9am (with an open water swim at 8 am as weather allows, and a transition run after the bike).

There are two swims a week until the end of June: Thursday am (6:00-7:30) and Saturday am (7:30-8:30) at CKRC. Beginning July, we will be swimming on Saturday mornings at BHP.

Sundays: There is generally a long run on Sunday mornings, (often there are different pace groups) starting from the Duck Pond, Assinaboine Park, at 9am. Through the summer, however, there is often a race on Sundays. Please check with the contact person for current info..

Winter workouts start January, 2011

TriFactor has three (3) indoor workouts per week, plus three free (uncoached) swims at the Cindy Klassen Rec Centre (formerly the Sargent Park Pool) at 999 Sargent Ave. This facility was given a dramatic facelift in 2009 with the addition of a track and weight room on the second level, as well as a library (below). Free parking is available off Sargent in a large lot in front of the facility. We have access to the showers and lockers (available for daily use for .25).

*All workouts will follow the training program set out at the beginning of the season*

If you are not a member of TriFactor but are considering joing a team, please contact us.

if you would like to try a bike workout and don’t own a trainer (heavy stands that enable a bike to be ridden in place) we can equip you with a team-owned trainer during your try-out.
