Pool Swimming

Freedom Tri Swim Training takes place at North Herts Leisure Centre, Letchworth every Monday morning between 06:45 am and 08:00 am and costs £3 (free to full members).

Our Monday session is suitable for all who can swim front crawl for a minimum of 1000m in a single session, we are very sorry but we do not teach people to swim, if this applies to you please do not be put off our members will help by putting you in contact with a good teacher and / or will help out with other less fornal sessions.

Typically each session will have a structured schedule and there will be 3 lanes self graded by ability, you should typically bring a pull buoy, float and hydration to each session (do not forget your costume or goggles).

On a regular basis we will have a coach on hand to support the session and offer advice, but the other members will help you out with the format and any special drills you may not have heard of!

Open Water Swimming

Throughout the summer Freedom Tri will give athletes access to open water swim training, you must have a proper triathlon wetsuit for this and as a member you will be issued with a swim hat for this.

Novices to open water swimming will have to prove their competence in the pool first and then have a supervised first lap of the lake.

Its actually bl**dy good fun.
