Group workouts

Now that the new year is here, it's time to starting thinking about the upcoming season. In the middle of winter, with snow, ice and freezing tempuratures, it can be hard to get out the door and train. The best advice is to find a group to train with - that makes it harder to beg out and sleep in. Luckly, several of our great sponsors have group training opportunites that we can take advantage of.

There is a masters swim program at CC, Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday mornings. Monday is IM focus, so time to work at that butterfly, Wednesday is distance sets, Friday is sprint sets and Saturday is mixed "coach's choice." They meet 530-700am m/w/f and 6-830am s. The cost is nominal and the group is a lot of fun.

Bicycle Village offers trainer classes Tuesdays and Thursdays at 600am. Bring your bike, set it up on one of the trainers and enjoy a results oriented spin class instead of the standard suffer fest at the gym.

Colorado Running Company has social runs Wednesday evenings at 6:00, Friday mornings at 7:00 and Saturday mornings at 7:30. All paces are welcome to join and they run regardless of the weather. Pikes Peak Triathlon Club will also be starting our own Wednesday Lunchtime Workout at 11:30, for a weekly speed workout of mile repeats, two mile repeats or 5k race simulation.

Check out our sponsor's links to learn more about their classess events. Hope to see you there!
