Masters Swim at Provo Rec

Come swim at the Provo Rec tonight at 7 pm.  I went last week and know this will be a great way to improve your swimming, I'm a middle of the pack swimmer and I'm super excited about the coaching I got there and the potential for improving my swim portion.

There seems to be some interest in open water swims.  Would anyone like to do a reservoir swim Saturday around 12:30?  Please respond on here.  I probably am wimpy enough to not take the plunge alone.  I could arrange a kayak for safety if we feel it is needed.

Swim at S.F. reservoir tonight

Jesse is an animal.  He's still planning on swimming at the Spanish Fork reservoir tonight at 6pm.
I'm going to try and brave the cold water and join him tonight. Anyone else in?

Nebo Tri Club meeting tonight at 7pm

We are meeting tonight, Sept. 10th at Canyon View Park, Pavillion 2, at 7pm.

Enter Canyon View Park just south of the entrance to Spanish Oaks golf course.

Discussion Topic: high intensity interval training for the time crunched?

I'm working a lot right now so what little time I have for excersize I'm trying to make it mean something.  Today the core of my work out on my bike was eight 30 second intervals going as hard as I could seperated by eight 30 second intervals of recovery.  I imagine I could do this swimming and running too but lately its just been biking.  Can I at least maintain my fitness, going from working out  say 9 hours a week to working out an hour and a half?  Any experience with this?  Anybody have any tips on being able to handle these workouts?  They are pretty miserable, I always feel like throwing up afterwards. Not pleasant.

Please I would welcome your thoughts.

Nebo Tri Club meeting/social

Mark your calendars... Tuesday Sept 10th at 7pm at the canyon view park in Spanish Fork.


There has been a lot of buzz going around about the club.  Please come and meet some like minded triathletes.  There are no dues at this point, please show up, lets kick this thing off with a good turn out.

Jesse and Bridget will be giving tips about setting up your transition area.

FAQ's about Nebo Tri Club

I just wanted to answer a few questions about the club.

1. we are just getting this thing going so the only cost of membership is that you show up at a workout or event mentioned on the blog or facebook.  There will be a fee later as we get going. think spring.

2. there is nothing to sign up for to be a member we are just looking for participation. so sign up by showing up.

3. we don't have regular club meetings right now but that will probably change.  our posted workouts are our meetings.  look for a meet and greet social event before year end. we were originally meeting at the spanish fork pool for swim workouts with Courtney and hopefully that will happen again next summer.

4. we are very much by the people for the people.  if you want the club to offer something join in and make your wishes known.

5. future plans include seminars on all aspects of triathlon, regular training sessions, social events built around the triathlon lifestyle, selecting specific triathlons that  club members train for so we can support each other at those events, we hope to sponser a newbie triathlon series next summer, training events to get you through the winter and really anything you want your tri club to be.

the club is just a seedling, it will and can grow into something great, I hope to see you at the next workout.
