Pool swimming: a one hour training session at Dunmow Leisure Centre taken by a BTF (British Triathlon Federation) coach. We have three lanes in the pool which helps coaches structure these sessions to cater for all abilities. The emphasis of the training is a mixture of technique and speed/stamina work depending on where we are in the season.
Running: a one hour session held at the running track at Braintree Leisure Centre. This is also structured to cater for all abilities and taken by a BTF coach. Again, the sessions normally include a mixture of technique and speed/stamina work.
Cycling: normally a two hour session starting at either Dunmow Leisure Centre or Hatfield Forest.
