NYC Triathlon Team Training Begins

Today was the first group training session for the New York City Triathlon team. It was a little deja vu as we repeated the first training session from way back in December from the Capital of Texas team. It was practically balmy as the temperature read 41 degrees at 7:30am this morning as I was leaving to head to the park for the 8:00 am session. The difference this time is that I am now a mentor for the NYC team.

Today's run was a short fun to give everyone an opportunity to meet the members of the team and start getting into the habit of exercising. The muddy field didn't deter Coach Jay from stretching us out afterwards. Although we didn't lie down in the mud for core conditioning exercises. Maybe next week.
