Swim Training Updated – 03/06
Filed Under (news) by admin


Hi,

Now that the water has warmed and the sun is out we are moving back to Star Sailing for the official swim training. Please note the change of days also. The new swim training is as follows:

Star Sailing WED & FRI @ 6.15

Note I think Arthur and Paudie will continue TUE & THUR from Templenoe however you would need to make contact with them to confirm and for times.

That’s four nights available now so there is no excuse (yes the irony of me writing this isn’t lost on me!).

Malin to Mizen Run
Filed Under (news) by admin

Hi Guys,

Joanne (my wife) and I are looking for help down your end of the world. Jo is planning to run from Malin to Mizen head and we need people to run bits of it with her. We also need witnesses (can be the runner) and support (is our route the right one from your local knowledge). So can you post this on your Clubs e-mail list or website please? Jo’s address is also included in this e-mail.

Thanks

Niall O Crualaoich

Here are the links to Jo’s run and planned Malin to Mizen site.
the blog  (http://malintomizenrun.blogspot.com/)

We have done up a route plan

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Malin+Head,+Ireland&daddr=mizen+head,+ireland&hl=en&geocode=FcxWTAMd_nuR_ymbrZAw2quKSDHx7ie7p8cAJg%3BFT4ZEQMd9yxq_ykLtkZuMoZFSDHJ-_dZBvQ7PA&mra=mr&mrcr=0&dirflg=w&sll=54.567285,-7.540741&sspn=0.449036,1.234589&ie=UTF8&ll=53.644638,-7.338867&spn=7.350447,19.753418&z=6

And the discussion on Boards.ie

http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055899217&page=2

and roughly speaking, the best case pacing is

Start Friday 21 May 2010
MALIN
Carndonagh
bypass Quigley’s Point
Muff
Derry
Strabane
Drumquin
Milltown
Carran Cross
ENNISKILLEN

Saturday 22 May 2010

Monday 24 May 2010

Kanturk
Banteer
Trathcoole
Macroom
Kealkill
BANTRY

Tuesday 25 May 2010
BANTRY
Carrigboy
Teomore
Golen
MIZEN HEAD

Although we might be a lot slower than this. The pacing is all just guesswork.The plan is to start running as soon as it gets bright and aim for 125km per day with a mixture of running and walking. We are looking for running and tri clubs along the way to get involved and either run with Joanne or be there as a witness. Contact details are on the Blog.

Talk soon

Chi Running Workshop in Cahersiveen
Filed Under (news) by admin

Catherina McKiernan

Hello,

This workshop may be of interest to some of your members – can you please forward this email onto all members of your Triathlon Club. Thank you.

Catherina McKiernan, the ex-Irish runner and now a Master ChiRunning Instructor will be in Fitness Plus, Cahersiveen on Saturday the 24th July to do a ChiRunning workshop.

If you have never heard of ChiRunning you can give me a call (087-6873510) and I’ll explain or look up the website www.catherinamckiernan.com and if you think you are interested in doing the workshop can you please get back to me.  Places are limited so I will obviously take it on a first come, first served basis!!! It sounds really interesting and I’m sure we could all do with help to stay injury free.

Basically the one day workshop starts at 10am and finishs at 5.00pm and the cost is 110 euro per person(payable asap to secure your place). The day is all about learning to run to reduce impact on the body and make running less of an effort and eliminate injuries. It is suitable for everyone who wishes to run pain free, regardless of standard.

Catherina video-tapes everyone outside at the start to see their style of running. We will then go inside and go through the ChiRunning form focuses through a series of drills and exercises. We will go outside for an easy relaxed practice run where Catherina talks the group through one focus at a time. The run lasts 20 minutes. After lunch there is analysis of the video-tape. This is a great learning tool for people and she picks out what people may need to change to help make their running more efficient and prevent or clear up a particular injury.

There is a questions and answers session and she will show the group some body loosening exercises to do before running and stretches for after running and also talk about training, diet and recovery and wide range of running related questions. To finish off the day there is an easy run in a small area where everyone runs up and down at their own pace and Catherina will run along with each person at different stages.

It all sounds very informative. Please reply via email or telephone if you are interested.

Many thanks!

Elaine Clifford
