Weekly Newsletter

Congrats to everyone who raced last weekend at the Rev3 Olympic and Half Ironman Triathlons!  Megan brought home another win taking the overall female in the Olympic distance while Will took 2nd in his AG and 10th overall.  JD, Eva, Eyal and Grace all had awesome races as well!

This weekend we have another big weekend of racing as we have members going to the Eagleman in Maryland, Flat as a Pancake in Staten Island, and the NYTri Series up in Harriman.  Good luck to all and don’t forget to send us your results (and photos if you have any)!

Fix a Flat

Given the recent bad luck with flats, I thought it would be appropriate to post a video by Expert Village, showing how to fix flats.

I am only including a short recovery between intervals this week in order to push stamina. If you think you need more recovery you can jog 200m between intervals in set 1.  We will take 60s standing rest between sets 1 and 2.
