BRICK

SUTTON'S BEACH BRICK/transition

This is a session where you practice open water swimming/cycling and running in ‘mini’ triathlon formats.  This is for you to learn and practice open water swimming skills, quick and efficient transitions, and get you used to doing all 3 disciplines in short/sharp practice races. 

For those racing long courses we provide an opportunity to practice these disciplines in a longer format.

They also allow you to group some of your sessions together and cut down on the time-consuming logistics. In effect, you can fit more training into less time.

Why is it called a “Brick” session? Because your legs feel like Bricks after these sessions.
