TRI 101 official release
By: Hector Yuzon
I remember, back in 1997 when me and my friends discovered triathlon: Gatorade Everyman sprint triathlon series – this poster we saw in Extreme mountainbike shop in Delta, Quezon Ave. Back then there were only 3 teams that we know of; MTC, Manila Triathlon Club and the IronPIGS (people in good shape – if my memory serves me right), and the Batangas boys of Abet Alon Alon. During that time (pre-internet, pre-texting), information about training and racing was scarce and hard to come by.
Now, with the boom of the active, endurance lifestyle – information is readily available. And as a part of our service to the community, we always try to pay it forward by helping the budding runner, the newbie triathlete, or basically those who want to adapt a positive change and take on the challenge of a healthier you.
Previously we came out with our first TRI101 talk. Featuring coach Ige Lopez, owner of TransitionOne multisport apparel and ITU certified coach.
Then we had the talk on Knowing Your Body Better, prevent common running injury. For this talk we featured Dr. Randy Molo of cyclist, avid runner and member of Team Secondwind, official doctor of the Azkals, head of the sports medicine in St. Lukes.
There were more requests of these similar talks, or for more topics. And as our next step, we are bringing back again the Tri101, this time featuring coach Norman Pascual of team Herbalife and ITU certified coach.
Learn or explore the world of multisport to supplement your running. Some members of team Secondwind, having discovered multisport – has greatly helped our running and endurance, strength and speed. Some of our teammates are products of Coach Norman as well! This is not to say to forget running, rather to just help add vigour to every step of your run!
