WITNEY ROAD RUNNERS

From One Triathlete To Another

Published on 6th January 2022 by web editor

You may have seen the survey and heard some whispers of a triathlon connection.  Well, it’s true! Jenny Moore,  Derek Bond and Conrad Bailey, members of WRR and triathletes are here to support first-time triathletes line up for a race feeling confident and ready to enjoy their day.
We also want to help existing triathletes in the early days of their tri career by signposting coaching resources to improve in the areas they want to work on, so in 2022, we will be offering a few different areas of support.

We’ll recommend races, initially looking at the closer shorter events, and kit you’ll need plus any recommended useful items to keep you comfortable whilst racing on those cooler days. When the temperature rises, and the lakes are accessible there will be open water training sessions available to book and swim buddy opportunities for anyone who is comfortable swimming but doesn’t want to swim on their own.
We are in talks with Witney and Carterton swimming pools to arrange swim technique lessons, and we’ll hopefully update you on that next week.

It may seem like common sense, but positions can easily be lost or gained in the transition area. For anyone interested in gaining some extra tips, there will be short transition workshops on run nights to help you set up your transition area for success.
We’ve thought long and hard about cycling, and for now with us all cycling at different speeds, we will be recommending local clubs to ride with, and supporting requests on Spond for cycling buddies. There’s some great clubs out there to help with technique, road awareness and the location of little-known local cafes!  If you’d like to find out more about the Witney based Mickey Cranks Cycle Club please contact Conrad Bailey.

In the new year we will be featuring a Tri Tip section in the newsletter which will include handy tips and tricks to aid in your potential Triathlon journey.
Until then, we have put together a list of Triathlons that will give you an idea of the kind of events that are available.
