REGULAR TRAINING SESSIONS
Sheffield Triathlon Club runs a programme of regular training sessions for its members (in addition to our annual training races and the renowned Hathersage Hilly Triathlon)
​
Non-members are welcome to try out a session or two before becoming a member.
Our team of qualified coaches lead the sessions and are always happy to advise and answer your questions.
The range of sessions does change through the year as may change in light of various circumstances and needs. For example open water swimming only operates in the summer months (a swimming specific summer membership is available)
If you are unsure about joining in do drop us a message or post on our Facebook Group. All abilities
are welcome, we're passionate about facilitating those new to the sport. And if you already have a sporting background we also foster and encourage intermediate and advanced level athletes in all three disciplines - many of our members achieve fantastic results regularly on the national and global triathlon scene.

Open Water Swimming:
Saturday mornings during summer, 8:30am to 10:00am
Rother Valley swimming takes place each Saturday morning. There's a safety kayak, but no formal coaching. You'll need a wetsuit unless you are an experienced open water swimmer but don't worry if you've not swum outdoors before - we'll help you get started.You'll need to be a Club member to attend these sessions: Summer Swim memberships are available HERE
Strength & Conditioning (Graves Leisure Centre):
An hour, designed to support injury prevention, address muscular imbalances and develop triathlon performance through relevant exercises and training methods. Typically, a session will involve appropriate mobility, strength, and stability training specifically for triathlon. The programme will also support overall health and well-being. This will be an effective weekly session to incorporate into your off-season training.
