Mega Day #2 Reflection

The morning of the Saugeen Triathlon Clubs Mega Day #2 was hit with another winter storm. Numbers for the training day were low due to several closed roads in the area, not to mention the power being off in parts Ontario. We gave an extra half an hour for delays which alllowed athletes to meet each other and get things properly set-up. I lead the group for around 2 and a half hours through a warm-up and two different cycling workouts. As always I added some colour commentary during the session detailing training tips and cycling/running related news from around the world and area. After the training ride some of the athletes dressed up and went out for a winter run. I stayed indoors and answered training questions and prepared for my afternoon session. After a very social lunch we started the 1st of two in class seminars. The 1st being my session on Sport Psychology and the 2nd focussing on Race Day items and set-up by John E. The group seemed to have alot of fun and take in lots of information. Both sessions went over the time limit which isn't a bad thing as people were asking lots of questions. Mega #3 is March 19th-praying for a clear day-with lots of memebers.
