3D Tri will be holding its annual general meeting online via Zoom on Tuesday 27th October at 7:30pm

[The meeting link has been sent to your registered email address and the club whatsapp group, please contact a member of the committee if you have not received it]

The committee has chosen to hold the AGM online due to the changing nature of Covid-19 requirements.

Open Positions

At the AGM a new committee will be elected. We are looking for men and women passionate about Triathlon and 3D Tri, a number of committee members have indicated they will be stepping back, and all positions will be open on the night.

Our current committee comes from all levels and experience of the sport and club; all thoughts and voices are welcome. If you have any questions about any of the roles just ask.

Get Involved

The AGM is your opportunity to have your say on how your club is run, so don't miss out.

As per the club constitution if anyone wishes to propose a change to the constitution they must submit that proposal at least 14 days in advance of the AGM, i.e by 7:30pm on the 12th October.

2020 has presented new challenges for all of us, but we are committed to providing the best possible club experience for all new and returning members.

  • Note that we’ll have a casual lane, if people want this, where you are free to do as much/little swimming as fast/slow as you want.

  • For other lanes, we'll aim to split folks up by pace.

  • Each lane should agree amongst themselves beforehand what set to follow, or if going to alter it.

  • Remember that changing rooms are closed due to COVID-19 - bring a big towel for changing.

  • The water is approx 16C, so a wetsuit is highly recommended.

  • Having the chats afterwards is definitely recommended (at 2m distance), so consider bringing a warm drink and a snack :)

Return to Training

/

Hi all, following on from Triathlon Ireland guidelines we are still unable to do large group activities :(

The guidelines state that 4 people can train (running only) as a “pod”. This pod must be the same 4 people throughout phase 1. We can provide training plans for “pods” until the 8th of June. We will complete the risk assessment, provide training plans for people who are interested in this.

When thinking of your “pod” think about location (5km from each other) and what day is best for you. If you are interested in forming a pod please email hello@3dtri.ie. It would be the responsibility of the pod to link in with one another.

Please see guidelines, and we encourage everyone to read and adhere to them.



Virtual Training Plan: 30th March to 12th April
