The “Mere Mortals” training group, sponsored by TriGulfCoast triathlon club will start their annual training program this Sunday, June 17th, 6:30 a.m. at the Casino Pavilion on Pensacola Beach. Mere Mortals is a 16-week program designed to enable neophytes to successfully complete the Santa Rosa Island Triathlon, usually held the first weekend in October on Pensacola Beach. However, many experienced and very fast triathletes also attend these training sessions.
The program consists of swimming, cycling, and running (of course), but also includes guest speakers before each training session that will cover triathlon form soup to nuts (nutrition, bike maintenance, strategy, transitions, etc.). If you are a triathlete in the NW Florida or Alabama Gulf Coast area, or just hope to be one, DO NOT MISS this valuable training opportunity.
Oh yes–one other thing, the cost. Mere Mortals is totally FREE for TriGulfCoast members. Your cost to join TriGulfCoast is $15, which is good for a one-year membership.
