Run Clinic Part 2 – Outdoor Run & Presentation
November 6, 2022 @ 8:30 am - 11:30 am
Go Run, Have Fun, Learn Some… then Eat a Cinnamon Bun!
You’ve likely heard you can’t win a triathlon in the swim, but you can lose it there – and that’s largely true. But with its position as the final discipline in our racing, the run can always be the most pivotal part of a triathlon. A strong run can save a tough race or cap off a great one. Building an efficient run stride ensures you make the most of your energy late in each race.
To help our members move and run better, Triathlon Manitoba is excited to have Lucy Smith lead these sessions and build towards a successful 2023 season.
If you’ve been part of our sport for a decade or two, you may recognize Lucy’s name – Lucy competed as a professional and high performance athlete at the international level in distance running, duathlon and triathlon for over 30 years, and competed for Canada in over twenty World Championship events. In her professional athletic career Lucy was a versatile competitor, and achieved success over a range of events from 5000m on the track to the Ironman distance in triathlon. Lucy’s coaching resume is equally impressive and for the past few years, she’s worked as Triathlon Canada’s Manager of Coach and Athlete Development.

Sunday’s sessions will take place at the Sport Manitoba Building at 145 Pacific Avenue in the Exchange. Clinic attendees have the option to run prior to the presentation, or just attend the presentation
8:30 am Run Option – We’ll open the doors at 8:00, so you can store everything you need for after the run, then we’ll hit the trails at 8:30am to run on each side of the Red. Routes from 5k to 12k are available, with showers available for after our run.
10:00 am Presentation – After the run, Lucy will lead us through a few keys points to optimize your running, before taking questions from the floor to help you improve efficiency, avoid injury and achieve your run goals for 2023 and beyond. TriMB will provide cinnamon buns and coffee for attendees, because recovery is an important part of running too!
Cost for the clinic is $10, or $15 if you want to include Friday’s track session too. Space is limited, as are the cinnamon buns, and both will be first come first served, so register today and don’t miss out.
