Gillie Girl Mini-Tri Training and Lecture

The Gillie Girl Mini-Tri Training Session and Information Seminars is designed to allow athletes to familiarize themselves the the basic layout of the course.   There will be one Session on July 10th at 7:30 am.   Athletes will have access to lifeguards from 7:30-8am as they practice their swim skills.   The swim portion of the training series will be marked at 1/4 mile.   Athletes will then have a bike course market that is 10 miles in length.   Signs in addition to the road markings will outline the 10 miles for athletes to gain familiarity and a race strategy on the course.   The run will be exactly two miles and will replicate the inital and finishing components of the actual Gillie Girl run.   Like the bike course, signs will mark the course.   Athletes will be on open roads and are advised to obey all the rules of the road (including stopping at stop signs).  It is the athletes responsibility to ensure their own safety.   Once athletes return to the park, their will be a series of lectures that include training, running, racing, and bike safety and maintenance.
