Why choose Triathlon and M3

There are plenty of opportunities for young people to participate in triathlon, with events run throughout the season including an Aquathlon Series – combining swimming and running – and the Scottish Schools and Youth Triathlon Championships.

Please visit the triathlonscotland website for race details and event listings for younger age groups.

Here at M3, we currently have a youth section and in line with triathlonscotland requires children to be 8 years old to join the club. Please note that the minimum age for participants for adult training sessions is 18, although special arrangements can be made for younger triathletes to attend on request or by invitation.

 

Training

Is on a Thursday evening at 6pm. Following the closure of Gardyne Pool we have not been offered a suitable regular swim session in the Dundee or Angus area sadly, but hope to arrange ad hoc swim sessions and we are currently training at Caird Park velodrome and indoor running track.

Kit Required:

  • Suitable clothes and trainers for running/cycling
  • Bike and helmet (Summer Sessions).
  • Water
  • Swimming kit – when appropriate (remember your towel and Goggles)

Joining Us

Sessions are posted and booked via an app called Spond. Message us on Facebook to receive the sign-up code for Monifieth Triathlon Club Youth Section.

Note: We do not have coaches qualified to teach non-swimmers and so expect you to be able to swim 25m (1 length) before attending swimming sessions.
