Novice program filling fast
The Mitchell’s Glass Novice Program information night was held at Vikings Erindale on 11 September, and one new novice signed up that night and was in the pool at Friday training the next morning. That’s what we like to see! The 8-week program runs from 11 October to 7 December, and as of mid-September there were 13 subsidised places left.
Guest coach at Lakeside
At Friday morning swim training at Lakeside, guest coach Greg took us through a set from his masters squad. Recently, Friday swimmers also practised open water skills such as no-wall turns (pretending to turn around a buoy) and deep water starts.
Sunshine Coast 70.3
Three Vikings raced the Sunshine Coast 70.3, all with great performances. Brian took silver in his age group and James completed his first half distance.
Can’t make training?
Coach Brendan posts the full running set in our members’ Facebook group each week, so you can stay on track even when life gets in the way. Nothing beats the energy of the squad, but consistency is key, with the team or flying solo.
Save the date: the club Christmas Party and end-of-novice BBQ will follow the Jackie Fairweather Triathlon on Sunday 7 December.
