Y Tri - Why Not? With Larry Atkins

Y Tri - Why Not? With Larry Atkins

Saying YES to trying a triathlon can be a scary choice to make. Once you commit, you start to ask so many questions: Where do I start? How do I train? What do I need? How long should I train? Can I really do this? Why did I say yes?

Then you start to feel all the feels like you can conquer the world! You feel happy, excited, scared, uncertain, and confused, but deep down you are proud of yourself for stepping up to a new challenge.

That’s when it’s time to find a club to help you reach your goals. In this episode, we talk with the Head Coach of the Capital Y-Tri Triathlon Team, Larry Atkins. We learn about Larry’s journey and why having a strong community is so important. We discuss the difference between a club and a team. We break down how Y-Tri has been so successful over the years with the all-volunteer coaching staff. They have introduced over 1,000 newbies to the sport and we couldn’t be more excited for you to hear for yourself and perhaps decide to Tri!

Don’t forget to leave a review, share this with your friends, and Follow Tri Beginner's luck on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. And send any questions or feedback you have to imreadyto@tribeginnersluck.com.

Let’s Tri this!
