TCSD CARES WRAP-UP omewhere during the transition from the Wnter training doldrums to the first spring races, TCSD President Brian Long had a brainstorm. “This is the first year TCSD is sponsoring the Solana Beach Triathlon, let’s put together a dedicated training program to get a group of beginners all the way from scratch through to the race!” And so TCSD Cares Team Solana was born. Its members raised over $5,000 for TCSD Cares. The Team ultimately comprised of 16 very different individuals with one goal in common, who were destined to become great friends.

The 8 week program consisted of educational seminar, dedicated team training events and independent workouts. The TCSD Cares training program was designed to take advantage of recurring club workouts and donated time and resources from club sponsors and coaches. Not surprisingly, once the word got out about the program, even more club volunteers and sponsors stepped up to donate their time, resources and expertise. From there the adventure began. Below are a few reports from participants. A complete story of the TCSD Cares Team Solana can be read on the club’s website.
