ADULT TRIATHLON ACADEMY
In response to the unprecedented number of enquiries we have recently received for training opportunities and information, I am delighted to announce that Bodyworks XTC will be holding a series of 'Adult Triathlon Academy' afternoons alongside offering other training opportunities on a weekly basis.
In addition to offering advice and feedback, these sessions will also be used to try and network contacts between existing and prospective new members as well as enable the Club to better understand what adult triathletes would like us to provide.

Local events for Adults
Courtesy of Andrew Sievewright I have attached a file he has kindly put together a calendar highlighting many of the local events in different disciplines suitable for adults. It offers a great framework for those looking at potential events. It is by no means a definitive list of what is on in all disciplines but Im sure will prove very useful. Thanks Andrew for your time and effort.
