Coach Craig

On Saturday I passed my Level 1 BTA Coaching Qualification! So that means that I'm now a qualified triathlon coach. I honestly didn't think I'd be blogging that a year a go.

I've been busy over the past few weeks practicing my coaching (mainly in the pool) and swotting up for the exam. I must say, I really enjoyed it and would recommend to any budding coaches.

Training has been a bit patchy, but I will be getting back to it this week and trying to work hard over the Christmas period. A swimming session of note:

200m fc/50m bks kick
150m fc/50m bks kick
100m fc/50m bs kick
50m fc/50m bs kick

12x25m 95% effort - 10 secs rest
8x50m 85% effort - 15 secs rest
6x100m 80% effort - 15 secs rest
4x200m 75% effort - 20 secs rest

A good winter session this, as long as you do the rest 'properly'. Very tiring indeed.
