Our training programs and schedules give you the flexibility to train for any triathlon you'd like. As a team, however, we have designated the following races as key races for 2008. You will see our coaches also participating in these races.

We have greatly expanded our training programs for the 2008 season. Our BRIKPAKs are now THREE days a week (an increase from two days a week). Our cadre of professional coaches will lead our weekly runs and weekend rides. In addition, we have designated a few races as our Main/Primary Races (see our calendar announcement for details).

We are also introducing a new pricing tier:
The TANYC ALL-YOU-CAN TRAIN Package.

With this package, which includes membership, you can purchase all of our BRICKPAKs, weekly rides and runs year-round, and also get our great benefits for the low price of $300. You will receive a high quality racing singlet or jersey too! The ALL-YOU-CAN TRAIN package gives you the most cost effective means to get our programs in a flexible way.

o ALL Three BRIKPAKS (9 weeks at 3 days a week each. $140 each if purchased separately under the PAY-AS-YOU-GO package)

Due to the success of the Feb 2nd indoor training ride, we're planning the next one, tentatively to be held the first or second weekend in March.

We're working on a great new location for this ride...stay tuned!

The coaching activities will be in alignment with overall TANYC strategy and the coaches will be leaders, go getters, proactive, dsiciplined, reliable, and enterepreneurs who have a deep undertanding of the triathlon community and will also be responsible for creating and growing successful programs in addition to various marketing, promotional, and peripheral activities. The coaches will also be trusted partners and advisors to the President. The coaches will be present at most training events and will be responsible for giving direction to program participants. USAT Certification is required. Pay is commensurate with experience and certification levels.
