This will be a big weekend of sessions to suit the whole team! Both IM preparation and the AT session #2 - Come along and train with your coach and the team.
The Energy Link At session is a 4-5weekly session run by the coaching team and is a great opportunity to step out of usual program structure and train with the team AT = alternative training and anaerobic threshold.

Results from our WA team members: Prue and Tom participated in race 3 of the Telstra Tri Series – City of Busselton Triathlon (Olympic) last weekend. After placing 3rd in races 1 & 2 which was sprint events, Prue stepped up to place 2nd in the Female 25-29 in 2:19:40 -  Swim 0:22:01, T1 0:01:33, Cycle 1:10:25, T2 1:05, Run 0:44:34

Tom came 17th  out of 52 in the Male 30-34 with a very solid 2:26 – Swim 0:28:38, T1 0:02:12, Cycle 1:11:04, T2 1:17, Run 0:42:56. Race #4 – City of Rockingham Pursuit. In a very close sprint for the line Prue finished 3rd, just 2 seconds behind 2nd place getter. Prue did her fastest time over this distance in this series with a 1:06:39 and a run PB of 0:21:07. The final race of the series, City of Joondalup Triathlon # 2, is promising to be another cracker. It’s on the 12th of April, 3 weeks out from Prue’s A event, Busso Half, and perfectly placed for Prue to have a real go! Go and get them Prue!
