Triathlon Club
The Moody AFB
triathlon club, TRIMOODY
is a
USA Triathlon
official club open to military members and their families. The club
offers training for all ability groups; from those looking to get fit to
those competing to win regional races. If you are just starting out, we will
make sure you are prepared for your first triathlon. If you are
competing we will help you refine your skills and take home some hardware.
If you are interested in more information on the club, please contact
Mike Carlson
or
Austin Pruneda.
USAT
USA Triathlon (USAT) is the
sanctioning organization for most triathlons in the region. TRIMOODY
is a registered official club which means we have access to more contacts in
the triathlon community and can race as an official team at events. In
order to race in USAT events, you must either be a member or pay a $9 fee
for race day insurance. An annual membership costs $39. It is
recommended that if you plan to race in more than 3 races in a year you
purchase an annual membership. If you are just starting out you can
pay the race day fees and if you decide to race more, the money is credited
towards the $39. You can register online at
USAT.
Weekly Training Schedule:
Because
of busy and conflicting schedules, the best way to get involved in training
for a triathlon is to contact one of the TRIMOODY representatives. We
have personal workout schedules and contact information both on and off
base. This enables us to find you someone to link up with for a
training partner. Below is a basic breakdown of the "official"
information. It will be updated accordingly.
Swim
practices have not been organized for the 2008 season. Check the
pool website for hours of operation. If you
need technique help, contact one of the TRIMOODY representatives.
Bike
practice is run in conjunction with the
Azalea City Cyclists,
TRIBLAZERS
and small independent groups of riders. Most long rides are on Sundays
afternoons. Times vary, so contact a TRIMOODY representative to find
out the latest schedule.
Run
practices will be put on by the Moody Marathon Club. Practices for the
2008 season have not started.
Training
schedule is not mandatory. We are just hoping to give those interested in
training opportunities to do so with a like minded group. Schedule is
completely flexible; many club members coordinate different times to
practice specific skills.
