Weekly Workouts

---

Join triathlon coach Brent Detta for a coached group open water session, which focuses on open water skills such as sighting, drafting and other skills to take your triathlon swim to the next level. 

Our weekly ride is now Wednesday Group Ride, offering the traditional time trial for speed and a no-drop social ride (40 minutes) for confidence and camaraderie. Meet us Wednesdays at 6 PM at the North Parking Lot of Lake Padden for an out-and-back route along Lake Samish. No club membership required—just sign a waiver before your first ride. Bring a roadworthy bike, helmet, and basic repair gear. Plus, join an optional brick run after the ride.

This is the swim that started it all, 30ish minute loop of the north part of Lake Whatcom, it is an aerobic swim that loops around the arm of the lake, regrouping twice. You can also swim out and back if you don't want to do the loop. Great way to start off your Thursday mornings with friends! 

 Join us for a pre-Lake Padden social post Wednesday ride! We’ll ride all or part of the Padden bike course at a social pace, perfect for all levels. Afterward, we’ll gather at a local brewery to enjoy drinks and food while mingling with fellow triathletes. We’ll meet at our customary Wednesday night ride spot; the brewery hangout location will be announced soon. Stay tuned for details! 

We’re planning an end-of-season social to bring everyone together and celebrate the 2025 triathlon season. This will be a chance to connect with fellow triathletes, share stories from the year, and recognize all the hard work, training, and racing that went into the season. Whether you raced every weekend or supported from the sidelines, we’d love to see you there.

Don’t miss this opportunity - you'll have a chance to learn about membership in the club this year including events, training, workshop. We will also have some sponsor swag to share!
