Group Triathlon Training for Life Time Chicago Triathlon 2012
Our 12-week group triathlon training program meets twice weekly for those competing in either the Sprint or International distance. Our small training groups allow for maximum amounts of individual attention. Our coaches cover all aspects of the triathlon in addition to training effectively with a heart rate monitor so you are in top shape come race day. We provide an affordable, and rich training experience with professional, certified coaches. Check out all that is included in this program! Remember, this program fills every year, so get in early!
Please note: If this is your first triathlon, we recommend starting with the Sprint distance training program. If you're seeking a new challenge, sign up for the Olympic distance training program.

Chicago Triathlon Group Workout Punch-Card (good for city and suburbs)
Punch-cards are a great option if you can only occasionally make a workout. You can buy practices in four-practice or eight-practice cards. If you finish your card before the end of the session, you can always purchase another one. When purchasing a punch card, you agree to finish these practices before the end of the session or the punches expire. The punch card plan is a good choice if you can make less than two workouts per week. A Max Multisport coach will send you an email upon registration and ask you to print your card prior to attending the first workout. Bring it with you and have a coach check off and initial your card each time you attend a workout. (not eligible for clinic dates or mini-triathlon workouts)
4 pack $69.00
8 pack $135.00
