Welcome!

Welcome to the Tampa Tri Team! Our team triathletes all members of the Bob Sierra YMCA located on Northdale Blvd in the North Tampa area. Our club is a social network all about building the relationships, along with building our endurance. We communicate mostly through email and our triathlon club board that is located outside the Spinning Room at our main facility. In order to be added to our tri team email list, email Jill Martino at ymcajill@aol.com. During season, I will send out weekly emails communicating race results, upcoming clinics, guest speakers, social events, gear for sale, etc.

Our club offers two free training programs a year for a beginner sprint and Olympic distance race. These programs are written and led by Lisa Sandusky. The Olympic distance program is geared towards St. Anthony's and the beginner sprint program is geared towards an August sprint race at Fort Desoto.

For a list of the classes that we deem tri-specific at our YMCA, click here. This changes periodically, so make sure to check it often. We do offer several Spinning classes that are taught by triathletes, certified triathlon coaches and certified cycling coaches. Additionally, we offer a 5:30 a.m. Tues/Thur and 6:30 p.m. M/W/F Masters Swim program. As for running, we have a Tues/Thur evening running group that meets in the lobby at 6:30 p.m. When the evenings are lighter again, one of the evening groups will move to the track. We also offer some awesome strength, Pilates and Yoga classes. For a more complete class schedule, click here.

Never hesitate to email any questions, especially if you are new to the sport and new to the YMCA. We're all about growing the sport, so remember, we have ALL been there! There is no such thing as a dumb question. Feel free to email Jill at ymcajill@aol.com.

I look forward to seeing you at the Y very soon!
