YMCA Triathlon - Waterloo Iowa

Read below for an athlete's response to taking the Traithlon Training Class! 🤩
"The tri training program was amazing both as actual triathlon prep, and for the camaraderie from the ladies involved; I even made a new life-long friend. Not only was it a great way to stay motivated to train (accountability buddies!), but we learned a lot through guest speakers and additional educational opportunities. The training plan is customized to each individual, which is a huge undertaking and that alone is worth the cost of the program. Penny really knows her stuff and is everyone's #1 fan! I felt so supported, never judged, and always encouraged."

We are so excited to bring this event to the cedar valley. It's a fundraiser for The Family YMCA of Black Hawk County. Did you know that the YMCA gives out over $400,000 worth of scholarships for families in need in our community each year, it's so much more than a swim and gym. Join in on the fun!
