The intermediates and experts get coached swim-team-style workouts. We have all levels of athletes up through race-winners returning session after session. Seminars, demos, and guest speakers are scheduled in the class. The typical two hour class includes an hour of swimming plus indoor biking or outdoor running in pace groups. Pace groups include 7, 8, 9, and 10 minutes per mile. Some of the classes late in the session will meet at the Big Creek beach for open water swim training, outdoor biking, and race simulations. The current session runs through June 19th. There is no problem joining the class after it starts. Sign up for one, two, three, or all nights. Class meets 6:30-8:30pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Most participants choose to register for two or one evenings per week but you can register for three or four if you like.
