Hi all,
sadly the weather has turned against us so no good for riding tonight.
Its pretty cold out so wrap up warm for the run too, we will head to the hills for some shelter and to stay away from the Southerly.
See everyone at 6.30pm for a run – I will be the one in the flouro orange jacket, tights, beanie, gloves…!!
Coach Logan
Hi all,
Hope everyone has had a great weekend training in the lovely weather!
Now the crazy season is here everyone seem to be looking for an extra 4 hours on top of 24 to fit everything in! Along with the usual tri training, kids stuff, better half time, chores and not forgetting work we are now meant to be socialising like mad as Santa is coming to town! Patrick McCann has a great way of breaking it all down help you decide how to juggle life and not get a stop go penalty from any of the aforementioned groups!

Coach Logan
Great work at the water stop everyone! I was expecting alot more water to be thrown around and over!
Here is a short clip that covers off the aid station tips and tricks.

Hi all,
Hope everyone is all set for a night at the track with Dave! He is a super fast triathlete with a running background who is going to put you through some drills then put you on the track. It is great for a change to run on the track but make sure you go at your pace – it is a night to learn not overstretch those hamstrings… not mentioning anyone here Rich!!
Here is a link but you might have to zoom out abit as the track isn’t marked properly on google.

The entrance is towards the zoo end by the end of grandstand. Any questions give me a bell team. Please wear your shirts so Dave can recognise you also… he doesn’t have the best vision!
Coach Logan
Hi all,
unfortunately the weather has conspired against us
TONIGHT IS A RUN
See everyone at 6.30pm for a trail run – Much more fun when it’s raining!
Coach Logan
Hi all,
Weather looks good for a ride tonight. It is going to be a little breezy so it will be good for drafting practice. Craig loves leading into the wind so we will all just shelter behind the big fella!
Please be ready to roll out from Freyberg at 6.30pm if possible. The light will be good tonight but we want to get you all back to Freyberg on time if possible. Lights please for those that have them.
Coach Logan
Hi team,
Great prize draw from Blue Seventy – makers of the great helix wetsuit and other swim gear.

Coach Logan
Hi all,
Hope everyone can feel heir legs this morning! Hills are great for building your run form, strength and fitness. Any workout that is interval based will have a greater training effect for most people. Running hill repeats is also very efficient for those that are pressed for time or want to escape the weather on a sheltered hillside like today!
Here is a great vid with Ironman legend Dave Scott.
Wellington is blessed with great topography so go out and embrace those hills at least once a week!
