- Open Water Swimming
-
The start of the summer is here and it is time we braved the Atlantic once again.
The swimming training will follow the same format as last year sea swims. The first swim of summer will take place on Monday May 31st. We will meet at Enniscrone Pier at 7pm and then swim to the beach and back. Any weaker swimmers have the option to make the short walk back from the beach.
Swimming training will continue on a Monday evening at 7pm throughout the summer. Last year we also incorporated a run after the swims so make sure to bring the runners.
The sea swims are an ideal opportunity for any club member who wishes to gain confidence in the open water.
This training is only open to 2010 Liquid Motion Tri Club members and any individual who takes part does so at their own risk and is responsible for their own safety at all times.

- Triathlon route cycle and run
-
This evening we had our planning meeting for our 2010 Salmon Run Triathlon. Unfortunately we had a small attendance. In preparation for the SalmonRun 2010 Triathlon there will be a cycle and run to review this years route, meeting at 7pm sharp this Friday (May 7th) at the end of Bachelors Walk. This is a Club cycle and run and therefore is only open to Liquid Motion Club Members (for insurance purposes). It is not a race but a steady bike and run to review the route.
On Friday we will take the opportunity to start to confirm names of family members and friends who will be marshalling where Club members are participating in our 2010 Salmon Run. In order to ensure the safety of our Triathlon and involvement of all Club Members this year we require that 2 family members/friends are confirmed as marshalls for each Club member participating.
Looking forward to seeing you on Friday.
Bernard
