Open Water Clinic Success at Clontarf Baths! 🧡🌊🏊♀️
Saturday’s (23/05) open water clinic was all about building confidence, learning skills, and reminding ourselves that getting into a wetsuit is basically an Olympic sport on its own 😅
The session covered everything from wetsuit fitting, open water goggles, transition tips, and the fine art of removing a wetsuit quickly without falling over 🫣
And we went well beyond “just swimming” — covering different types of sighting, group swimming, drafting, drills, race starts, exits, and transitions to help prepare for the realities of open water triathlon swimming 🌊💪
With fantastic weather, a brilliant turnout, and some members from Fingal Tri Club joining in too, it turned into a really great morning of learning, laughs, and community.
And the good news doesn’t stop there — from June onwards we’ll be running weekly open water training sessions throughout the summer! ☀️
If you’ve ever wanted to try open water swimming, now’s your chance. We offer a free trial session, so if you fancy swimming in cold Irish seawater while somehow still having great craic and training with a brilliant group of people… come join us 😜🏊♂️🧡
