The club will run through race season and will have the following triathlon schedule:
*Wednesdays, 6:30-7:30 p.m. Swim at Northwestern University.
*Thursdays, 7-8 p.m. Running speed workout at Evanston High School track.

*Sundays, 7-9 a.m. Endurance bike followed by endurance run. Workouts will be broken into Sprint, Olympic and Half-Ironman distances.

*Saturdays, 3 p.m. Adventure race training which will include orienteering, ropes, endurance/skill sessions and mountain biking.
*Sundays, 7-9 a.m. Lake Michigan paddle. Boats and gear will be supplied.


Full club membership will also include a training plan for either sprint, Olympic or Ironman-distance tris, or adventure racing, Maller said. Members will be able to select three areas of concentration between tri swimming, road biking, running, paddling and adventure race training. Cost for the club is $250, with an extra $100 fee for the paddling option to cover summer boat rental costs.
