The first brick session of the season has just begun and it's not too late to register! You can either purchase sessions separately (pay as you go) or as part of the ALL-YOU-CAN-TRAIN package which is by far the greatest money saver.

We have greatly expanded our training programs for the 2008 season. Our BRIKPAKs are now THREE days a week (an increase from one day 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.

Already a member and want to upgrade to the ALL-YOU-CAN TRAIN Package? Click the link below to upgrade.

The ALL-YOU-CAN TRAIN package offers:
o ALL Three BRIKPAKS (9 weeks at 3 days a week each. $140 each if purchased separately under the PAY-AS-YOU-GO package)
o FULL MEMBERSHIP ($60 if purchased separately)
o Our weekly runs and bikes (from late Jan.-Nov. at least once week. $100 if purchased separately)

o ALL Comprehensive Benefits membership benefits such as free mentors assigned; our weekly newsletter; our free high tech online graphical training; access to 600-member discussion group; discounts to major triathlon; running and biking stores in NYC; 20% membership discount to the YMCA; and more.

For those who want to buy a la carte, you can still purchase our various programs separately (BRIKPAKs, weekly rides, runs, membership, etc) under our PAY-AS-YOU-GO packages. These packages are only available to TANYC members.

Primary Races:

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.

• June 15th
Long Island Gold Coast Tri and Bi (Sprint race for both)
• June 29th
Tupperlake Half Iron (MAIN RACE I) and Sprint
• July 13th
Musselman Tri Sprint Distance
• July 20th
NYC Tri (Olympic distance)
• August 10th
Central Park Triathlon (Sprint Distance)
• September: MAIN RACE II--TBD

If you live for the thrill that the tri-world brings, we want you to share that enthusiasm. We're looking for dedicated, accomplished athletes who can serve as motivators, educators and role models. Being a mentor to a less experienced athlete requires very little of your time. It usually only involves answering a few questions by email or over the phone. And the little time you can spare will mean a lot to an up-and-coming athlete who wants to be guided by the best.
