We thrive on structure

2024 TRAINING SCHEDULE

General training notes

Our 2024 season runs March 11 through August 11 (five months).
We do not maintain attendance requirements. We hope to see you as much as you can attend.
If you have another sport/activity that you consider your primary sport, please communicate about your other commitments. We aim to complement rather than distract from your primary sport goals.
While we finalize details with partner facilities, this training schedule, including locations and times, remains tentative and subject to change. We ultimately strive to provide a stable training schedule. Details will be relayed via team communications.
We will be using stationary bike trainers this season, but after the preseason we hope to limit their use to no more than twice per month.
This season, for increased safety, we are asking for a parent volunteer to drive “SAG” behind our group during Saturday morning road rides. If you are able to give us a couple of hours, please sign up HERE.

Please note:

Thursday run/bikes and

Friday swims:

We aim to incorporate open water swim training opportunities and hopefully some trail running and/or mountain biking/gravel riding into our program this year during the Summer training block, mostly on Fridays (possibly Wednesdays as well). We expect to hold at least two, hopefully more, open water swim training at places such as Blue Marsh, Beltzville, and likely Evergreen Lake. Any park fees or entrance fees will have to be paid by the athlete. We will also incorporate trail runs on these days. Any FFT athlete age 12 and over is welcome to attend the open water sessions. Athletes ages 11 and under, please speak with Caoch Mandy before attending.

Thursdays will be flex days - we expect to ride trainers at least once per month, do a drills and skills day once per month, and may use one Thursday per month as a special ride day. Please allow for some flexibility on these days. Thank you!
