Hi Warroirs, hope your training went well this morning.
Coach Joe Biondi, Head Coach Sun Masters will be holding an Open water-trai=
ning swim in preparation for the Top Gun Triathlon. The training swim will=
be at Pass-A-Grille on Sunday July 26, 2009 at 8:30 am.
This will be a great opportunity for the seasoned and newer triathletes. W=
e will be swimming a =BC mile course complete with buoys. We will practice=
all of the essential skills to enhance swimmer's comfort and success in th=
e open water. We work on open water anxiety, proper breathing, entering and=
exiting the water, navigation, drafting and more. This swim will be limit=
ed to the first 100 swimmers that sign up and pay the fee. No refunds.=20
The OW training will take place at beautiful Pass-A-Grill Beach, 1 mile sou=
th of the historic Don Cesar Resort. The fee for this coached OW practice =
will be $20.00 per swimmer. All entries must be received by Wednesday, Jul=
y 22nd, and there will be NO on-site entries accepted: no exceptions. Ple=
ase fill out attached waiver, make check payable to Joe Biondi,
and mail both to: Joe Biondi, 216 Elizabeth Avenue, Clearwater, FL 33759=
-4007.
Check-in will begin at 7:30 am, at the pavilion in Frank T. Hurley Park, 1=
501 Gulf Way, 33706. After check-in, please head across the street to the =
boardwalk and up the beach. We will start waterside, approximately 1/4 mil=
e north of the boardwalk, at 8:30 am sharp. I will have swim buoys in the =
water to assist with the navigation skills. This training will take roughl=
y 1.5-2 hours. Hurley Park has metered parking, credit card or change (the=
meters do not take $ bills). There are restrooms and outdoor showers for =
your convenience. The water temperature is estimated to be in the high 80'=
s.=20
=20
This is not a learn-to-swim program. If you cannot swim 440 yards in open w=
ater this swim is not for you. This is swim at your own risk, as there will=
be no lifeguards. If you are a new triathlete and wish to take advantage =
of this training and get use to the open water swimming, you may swim close=
to shore parallel to the beach. There will be several qualified coaches t=
o adequately instruct all participants.
If you have a brightly colored swim cap please bring it. If you do not have=
a cap you will be provided with a swim cap that must be worn during the sw=
im. If you wish to have a time for your swims, you will have to keep your =
own. We will swim the course 2 or 3 times, as weather permits. If the wea=
ther is bad...lightning or unsafe conditions...we will not swim. Florida w=
eather changes rapidly, so waiting a half hour or so is not out of the ques=
tion. Most storms are in the PM and usually move fast...pray for great weat=
her.
We are looking forward to this training...it will be very challenging and =
fun, snorkels are allowed in triathlons.
Any questions...give me a shout.
Swimmingly,
Coach Joe Biondi
