STARRS Triathlon Club: 100-Hour Training Challenge 2009 (and youth 50-Hour Challenge)

The 100 hour challenge is back for 2010! Join by February 1. It's a great deal for the gear and pointers alone, not to mention the motivation factor to jump start your tri season.

 

This is an ideal training program to help prepare you the upcoming triathlon/duathlon races in our local area or can be used as a basic conditioning program. You must select one of the three categories to compete in and complete all the required hours in each of the discipline within 90 days.

 

In the triathlon category you must complete 30 hours swimming / 40 hours cycling / 30 hours running, and in the duathlon category you must complete 60 hours cycling / 40 hours running, and in the Aquabike you must finish 40 hours swimming/60 hours cycling. Training hours can be completed on stationary bike and treadmills. Treadmill should be set at a minimum of 1 percent incline.

 

Youth ages 8 to 14 may complete in the 50-Hour Challenge. Distances are cut in half for all three categories. (Triathlon 15/20/15 hours, Du 30/20 hours, Aquabike 20/30 hours). All participates will receive rules and training tips.
