For each race you want to do, you must complete the weekly mileage through team practices or a combination of OC1/OC6/Perg/Running. Dragon boating counts for half of your practice.
Weekday practices (Tues, Thurs, Sat): OC6 goes 6 miles
Saturday practices: OC6 goes 7-10 miles until July. August-September OC6 goes 15 miles.
Club OC1 can be loaned DURING club practices. Please make arrangements with the coach running practice and you MUST BE DONE BEFORE club practice ends.
We will borrow and bring Pergs out every other Saturday for you to get your time in. We will set up separate Heja practice for you to sign up for club OC1 and Perg time trials. It is up to you to make sure you make you sign up and reserve your time.
