An Action-Packed Month and a Promising Season Ahead This past month has been a blur of sick sponsorship deals, intimate team bonding, and Lauri not seeming to get a break from getting beaten by the injury stick.  If you haven’t burnt a big enough hole in your pocket, be sure to place your order for a wetsuit or the new Blue Seventy tri suits!  The tri suit designs rock, and you will need a tri suit with our school colors and logo on it to race for us in the Spring. Now that we're more than halfway through the semester, it seems as though everyone has finally settled into a consistent workout schedule.  As a general rule of thumb, tri practice > studying for midterms!  Just kidding.  Sort of. Anyway, in case you disabled all incoming emails from Cal Tri or just otherwise haven't been up to date with what's been going on in our world, we're already off to an exciting semester and are looking toward an excellent race season! At the end of September, a bunch of us got together to spend an incredible weekend down in Santa Cruz camping, bonding, and supporting those racing the Santa Cruz Triathlon!  After an intense Saturday of biking, swimming, eating, running, and playing volleyball on the beach (or napping), we scaled a mountain only to be greeted with mountains of delicious food, cooked by the family of our recently-graduated teammate, Sam Vroomen!
Report from NATIONALS!!
This past weekend, 23 of our CalTri athletes headed down to Tuscaloosa, Alabama for the USAT Collegiate National Championship. The conditions of the race were brutal, but at the end of the day, our women’s team came in 5th, our men 3rd, and overall…CalTri is the THIRD BEST TRIATHLON TEAM IN THE NATION!!! Go Bears!!!
Report from Winter Tri Camp 2011!   Last week, 66 of our Cal triathletes headed down to sunny Oceanside for our annual Winter Training Camp.  Good food, good friends, and great practices…what more could you ask for?!  Here’s the breakdown of our week:

About Cal Triathlon

The Cal Triathlon Team works to promote the multi-sport lifestyle within the campus community and currently boasts the highest membership of the Cal club teams.  Everyone is welcome!  We are open to all skill levels and abilities from complete beginners to seasoned professionals.  With Cal Tri, you will find an adventurous team led by supportive coaches who will help you become the triathlete you want to be.

 


We train in the fall and race in the spring against schools across the west coast at the Sprint (750m Swim/20K bike/5K run) and Olympic (1.5k swim/40K bike/10k run) distance.  Top athletes compete in late April at USAT collegiate nationals.

Team History:

The UC Berkeley Triathlon team was founded in 1989. Since then, it has grown to be the largest athletics team at UC Berkeley, the largest club sport in the nation, and the most decorated collegiate triathlon team in the past 5 years. We reach out to more people in the community and the state than any other triathlon team in the nation.

Since it’s inception, the UC Berkeley Triathlon Team has excelled at every aspect of collegiate triathlon. The past five years have seen five individual medals every year, including two golds. The Men’s and Women’s teams excel every year. Consistency has made us the most decorated collegiate triathlon team in the country.
