“Creating Healthy & Sustainable Routines!”
LIVE – Thursday, 1/21 @ 12pm
LIVE – Thursday, 1/21 @ 12pm
Routines and habits are one of the most important aspects of sports that athletes (of ANY level) can develop to improve their health, fitness, training and competitive performances.
Although, we often set out with good intentions, many fail to actually establish a routine (let alone a habit) that sticks and ultimately pays off.
We will discuss best practices and common pitfalls including actionable steps one can take to help ensure success.
When: Thursday, 1/21 @ 12pm EST

RTA Triathlon x Hyperice
We are very excited to announce a new partnership with Hyperice, the leader in recovery technology.
Each December, just before the new year, I go for a run on a discrete and private snow-covered road in Lake Placid. I use this run as a time to reflect on the previous year. Here are a few thoughts that came to mind as we close out the 10th year of RTA…

HUGE SUCCESS: Team RTA Virtual Race
We had our first “Team Race” of the year on Sunday and it was a TOTAL HIT. Obviously, our first race wasn’t the JerseyMan Tri as originally planned, but it was, no doubt, very special in it’s own way.
While there are lots and lots of virtual race options “these days,” Sunday’s virtual Team Race was SPECIAL and a TON OF FUN!
CONGRATS to everyone who participated!

Becoming a better swimmer is a process. It takes time and it usually doesn’t happen over night. However, there are definitely a few ways to speed up the process.
We regularly get the question, “What and how long will it take… for me to learn how to swim (or improve my current swimming ability)?”
To help answer this question, we thought it would be fun to highlight one particular athlete whom we have been working with most recently. We’ll discuss the stroke improvements made, speed gains earned and the time it took to accomplish this.

We Are EXTREMELY GRATEFUL
2020 will mark our 10th year in business together as … “professional triathlon coaches”…
WAIT! WHAT? … yup that’s actually a “job!!!” We still laugh when people ask us, “what do you do for work?” 😂
We would like to think of “what we do,” more as guiding people to achieve EPIC & EXTRAORDINARY GOALS by using health & fitness as the primary median. It has truly been a blessing. There is NOTHING BETTER than HELPING OTHERS achieve their PERSONAL GREATNESS.

Each year we try to find ways to add additional value to your experience as an RTA club member. In 2020 we will be offering regular triathlon webinars for our athletes and club members. More info and sample webinar below.
Our group is made up of a lot of busy professionals, parents and overall ambitious people looking to learn and better themselves, but they are also strapped for time. As our Team’s geographical footprint continues expand (NJ, NY, CT, PA, MA, IL, WA, CO) we are always looking for ways to keep people connected regardless of where they live.

Are you a Tri Coach? OR… Are you an triathlete who likes to know what goes on behind the “scene?” Join Coach Elizabeth Kaplanis as she and IRONMAN U® Master Coach, Matt Dixon breakdown two real life athlete scenarios.
On July 28th, 32 athletes from Team RTA Triathlon Club started the iconic IRONMAN Lake Placid and by midnight EVERYONE FINISHED! We had the most athletes of any group this year so there was plenty of team support to go around.
It’s hard to put into words just how special this event was for Team RTA so instead of trying, we created a short video to help caption the emotion from this triumphant weekend.
