Purpose of Triathlon Club – Social Support
  • Place to meet fellow triathletes & find training partners of similar ability
  • Someone to talk to about training and races – a lot of times family & friends don’t understand nor want to hear about it
  • Carpool & group support at races (split hotel for distant races) – wear team shirt before/after race to help spot each other & cheer each other on
  • Social gathering a couple of times a year
  • Email/Network group – upcoming races, training rides/runs/swims, a place to buy/sell triathlon gear, bikes, etc., a place to ask questions
  • Be a mentor to a first time triathlete or sign up to have a mentor
