Cycling for Triathlons
Join the Colorado Triathlon Club and head coach, Ellen Campbell, and take your cycling to a new level. Cycling for Triathlons is our off season training program to make you a better triathlete. It is a periodized approach to making you more efficient, stronger and more powerful on your bike. Join us Tuesday and Thursday evenings in the cycling studio for a 90 minute workout, 5:45-7:15 pm. In Phase 1 we'll spend 8 weeks focusing on endurance, technique and strength. In Phase 2 we’ll spend 11 weeks focusing on strength, power, anaerobic threshold training, speed, and bike/run transitions. Both phases incorporate lower body strength training and core conditioning specific to cycling. Choose from the recommended twice per week or a prorated once per week.

CAC Triathlon Club
The CAC Triathlon Club is a group training environment for athletes of all levels that runs April - September. Whether you are looking to compete in your first triathlon or you have already crossed the finish line several times, you will find a group just right for you. Each workout consists of two of the three sports; swimming, biking and running. A workout calendar will be provided indicating the sports and location of each workout. In addition to the coached workouts, you will also receive a weekly schedule of what you should accomplish on your own or with some of your training friends. Coached workouts include pool and open water swimming, indoor and outdoor cycling, running, strength training tips, transition training, race nutrition, course strategy and technique analysis in all three sports. Each team prepares you for one or more races for the season. We begin with our private Mini Tri in mid May. The rest of the race schedule includes, but is not limited to, the 5430 Sprint, Loveland Lake to Lake, Danskin, Table Mountain, Prospect Lake, The Boulder Peak, Tri for the Cure, Rattlesnake, and Steamboat races. Choose from that list or create your own schedule. We’ll get you ready for it.
