KW Koalas is taking off!

Alright! Happy to report the person signed up last night and is our newest Koala! I then have a meeting with another person tonight and one next week, woohoo! Keep it coming and growing.
Finally got the Blue triathlon bike out yesterday for a 50km ride. It is going to take a few rides to get used to it and get it dialed in properly. Nice ride though with the carbon fibre forks and seat post to help absorb some of the chatter from the rough roads. Gorgeous day out for riding as is today St Patricks Day!
This Saturday is our eagerly awaited swim clinic! It is at WLU pool and starts at 11am and goes to 12:30. Great session to hone up on your swimming skills and technique for the upcoming triathlon season. As a coach, I have been focusing on skill development early on along with endurance building. Really important to build that aerobic engine up properly for the rigors of the harder training sessions and racing to come lter on in the spring/summer. Many times triathletes will get out there and hammer away time after time and eventually will have some type of injury and/or overtraining symptom show up. I know I have fallen into that trap and its not pretty.
Have a great St.Pattys day!!
