Absolute launch new race team
Midlands-based coaching outfit ready for 2011 events
Midlands-based Absolute Triathlon Coaching officially launched their brand new race team on Saturday 19 March at the Dambuster Duathlon, which took place at Rutland Water.
The race team is a new initiative from Absolute and is open to all their private coaching clients, regardless of ability, and will provide athletes with a comprehensive the support package usually only associated with professional race teams including sponsored race kit, sports testing, training days, physiotherapy support and injury rehabilitation.
Head Coach Steve Lloyd said, “We’re constantly looking at ways to add value to our clients’ experience of triathlon and have been developing the race team project for some time working with potential partners and sponsors. We’re excited about making this fantastic opportunity available to all our clients especially as it will be incredibly motivating for our novice athletes to have this level of provision.”
The race team athletes will also be invited to exclusive, complimentary training days where they can access a full range of services including swim analysis, drill and technique sessions for running, bike skills and injury prevention sessions delivered by physiotherapists.
Absolute’s bespoke coached programmes start at just £60 per month and all distances and standards are catered for.
