Northern Utah Triathletes

Triathlon

Triathlon is a fast growing sport in Utah and it’s easy to see why they are so popular. The variety of training and challenge that triathlon provides with swimming, biking and running makes it exciting and fun! As a certified running coach since 1996, Lora Erickson aka Blonde Runner has seen many athletes embrace the challenge of triathlons and are now looking to find others to train with.  This is one of the many reasons this group was organized, along with educating beginners on how to train properly to avoid injury and to find training partners for those that might need a push.  The Northern Utah Triathletes welcomes beginners, intermediate and elite/professional athletes. Group rides, swim practices, nutrition seminars, health clinics and running lectures will be scheduled regularly. This new group has grown to 108 members in just the few short months it has existed (starting Jan. 2010).  Join us and swim, bike, and run your body to better health.
