Club Training Sessions
There are many groups that train together on a regular basis, however these sessions are often word of mouth and meeting places/times are always changing. Our suggestion for new members, is to come along to one of our club triathlons and talk to other members or the committee. This is a great way to find a group that suits your ability.
Swimming Training
A friendly swimming group swims Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 6am at Bendigo East Pool. swimming can be daunting for some but the best way to improve is “swim more laps.” There is a lane for all abilities.
Others train on a regular basis at Crusoe Reservoir and again at Bendigo East Pool Tuesday & Thursday. These are often word of mouth sessions.
Running Training
Gavin and Todd conduct their training sessions for any level of athlete every Wednesday night Lake Weeroona at 6pm. These are training sessions not coaching, but if you require advice they love to share what they know. Please contact Todd Foster if you would like more info.
Ex-Club President and multiple Ironman finisher Mel Wilkie runs the popular Gazelles Run Groups for Women. For more information please contact Mel at matl.wilkie@gmail.com or phone 0438 548 092.Cycling Training
Many of our members ride with already established groups coordinated by the cycling community. There are several groups that cater for all abilities that leave from the Sternberg Street roundabout on Saturday mornings.
For details contact Eddie Barkla ebarkla@powercor.com.au.
There are also many tri groups that leave from Max Bakery on a Saturday morning from between 7-8am – beginners, veterans and even a high level group that can sometimes train up to 180km on a Saturday morning. You also get the bonus of a coffee and cake from our sponsor Max Bakery! Bendigo Tri bunches generally finish around the same times between 9:30am and 10:30am @ Max Bakery.
