Past Session

Coached OW Swim Session

This session is exclusively for club members and there will be several options available - you can swim for the duration of the session and/or take part in coached activities, the choice is yours.

Coached activities are planned to include:

  • Acclimatising to open water swimming
  • Entry and exiting the water
  • Swim start practice (for both on land and in water)
  • Turning at buoys
  • Sighting and spotting landmarks
  • Drafting
  • Transition/removing wetsuit (at the end of the session, as no-one really wants to try to get back into a wet wetsuit!)

There will be a number of coaches in attendance, so any other issues/problems could probably be addressed.

Members can mix and match activities but it would be helpful if notification of preferred coached activities could be given in advance to coaching@rugbytriathlon.org.uk

Speedhub at Lutterworth have offered to bring along a number of wetsuits for members to try out.
On the basis that we would like to see the same number of swimmers get out as went in, we require that all swimmers wear a coloured hat and the best colours for lifeguards and spotters to see are yellow, orange and red (colours such as blue, black, green, silver and white are difficult to see so your help would help your safety!)
