BIKING Two of your Tri WI sponsors (TriFaster and InStep) have teamed up to offer Saturday morning cycling classes. These 90 minutes sessions are structured cycling intervals with pumped up music that will bring your off season training to another level. The workouts will be a mix of leg speed, aerobic intervals, strength sets, and time trial efforts. Classes are led by TriFaster coaches Todd and Lauren Jensen. These TriFaster bike workouts will be held on Saturdays from 7:15-8:45am at InStep in Franklin. They start Feb 6 and run for 6 weeks. You can register for one or more classes, but you score a discount if you register for the entire session. They are BYOBAT workouts. Sorry Perry, John, Erin and other fun hungry triathletes - that does not mean bring your own beer and treats (they are at 7:15am after all). It actually means bring your own bike and trainer (along with a towel and water or sports drink). There is an option to enroll in a 9am yoga class following the bike workouts. For more information and to register for the bike workouts, please visit www.trifaster.com. For more information or to register for yoga, please visit http://www.runinstep.com. We are limited by space, so register early if you want to guarentee a spot in this class.
