Tri-Gators
(Founded 1981)
The club is open for participation to all UF students, staff and faculty. There are no fees of any kind involved for joining, and we welcome athletes of any ability, athletic background and experience level. Our members range the spectrum from those who have never done a triathlon and simply want to train with us, through recreational triathletes to ironmen finishers. Typically we train as a group almost every evening, while many members get together with others o similar interests and schedules for smaller group workouts as well. Most of our workouts are structured so that the beginner can find a comfortable level of challenge in them, while the more experienced athlete can chose a more "punishing" option.
What we do... Weekend rides with local groups or arrange a workout/meetings. Running is rain or shine. NO swimming permitted during thunderstorms. Athletes are discouraged from stadiums when wet due to slippery conditions. Riders without helmets will not be permitted on group rides. NO headphones or personal stereos on group rides - DUH!
More info... We employ a coach for the benefit of the athletes, who usually attends our track workouts and swim workout. In addition to our group workouts, there are many groups at and around the University that offer athletic resource, and we will be happy to direct them to the groups that best meet their interest (FAST/Masters-swimming or Team FLORIDA - cycling club).
