I'm looking for a triathlon training group to join in the North Dallas area. I live near Preston/Forest and work downtown, so would prefer to train near or around those areas. I have also considered joining the Dallas Masters swimming program.

Any suggestions?

Greater Dallas Bicyclist does a ride from Preston/Forrest every Saturday AM.  They also have other nearby weekly rides.

As to groups, check out the new formed Loncar Training Team.  No sure on the website PM me if you have questions.  They are branding themselves as more of a competitive training group and less of the social groups that are far more prevalent.

rnner66 - 2009-10-27 9:57 PM I'm looking for a triathlon training group to join in the North Dallas area. I live near Preston/Forest and work downtown, so would prefer to train near or around those areas. I have also considered joining the Dallas Masters swimming program. Any suggestions?

Go check out all the clubs in the area, do some workouts with them, meet some people and see which one feels right to you.  The 3 I would check out have been mentioned.... Team Triple threat, PlayTri, and Frisco Triathlon Club.

I like Frisco for the location, the people, and the workouts.  It is also the lowest cost of the 3.  We are having a "social" in November, and that would be a fun way to get to know some of the people.

From what I have heard and read about the others..... Team Triple Threat has a very strong swim program and the price is pretty low for what you get from the swim workouts alone.

Playtri has some really bad-a$$ coaches, ie Aaron, and performance wise, might be the one to check out.  They are the highest cost, but might be a better fit if it is what you are looking for.

Send me a pm if you want more info on Frisco Triathlon Club.

Hey Derek, you forgot to mention that with Frisco Tri Club, they get their own personal paparazzi......you, ha! Laughing 

Yeah, as others have said, just check them all out and go with the one you feel the most comfortable with and suit your needs the best. TTT: www.texastriplethreat.com

Good Luck!
