The Road Show Begins

It’s time for us to “hit the road.”  During February, March, April and May we will be taking our show on the road.  This is the perfect time to meet us (the coaches) and learn about what the training entails and how you can fit it into your life!  Many times our Workout Leaders and past athletes make special appearances.  It’s great to see some old friends and meet some new ones.  We cannot wait to meet you!

We are very excited to be collaborating with the New England Air Museum for this event.  Bring your family and they can tour the museum while you spend some time with us. We’ve scheduled our talk to coincide with the arrival of “AEXEOUS.”  AEXEOUS is a one of a kind engineering marvel that is being used as a teaching tool to educate and excite children of all ages.  He is 12’ tall and he moves and talks with visitors. On Sunday, March 14, visitors to the New England Air Museum in Windsor Locks, Conn. will be treated to a special show by an amazing interactive robot.|

Those women attending the Team Training New England talk can bring their families for a special admission rate: With every adult admission ($10), a child gets in for free (savings of $6).
Also, check out the attached list of libraries that give free passes to the museum!

TTNE Gear

Whether it’s for you or your favorite triathlete, we have a great gift idea.

We’ve been field testing the thinksport™ water bottle to see if it meets our high standards.  Not to get all hyperbolic, but this is “not just another water bottle” that you get when you do a race. While it’s not designed to be used on your bike, it’s perfect for pre and post race hydration (or for keeping your coffee/tea/hot chocolate hot, hot, hot).

Double-walled stainless steel and vacuum-sealed, it keeps contents hot or cold for hours. You won’t feel the temperature of the contents. If you fill the bottle with hot liquid or put ice cubes in, you won’t grab a blazing hot bottle or a freezing cold one either.  The liquid inside stays the temperature that you started with.  We think it’s perfect for keeping in your car during the hot and cold months.  It also works great for race day.  You can keep your recovery drink in your transition bag and it won’t get warm while you’re out on the road.

To make this a little more personal, we customized these bottles with the  Team Training New England logo.

Here are the some of the other thinksport™ bottle features:

Removable internal mesh filter.  This reduces the chances of ice or tea leaves from being consumed during drinking.

Made with safe, non-toxic materials. Free of Bisphenol-A (BPA), lead, PVC, nitrosamines, phthalates.

Holds 12 oz or 350 ml of liquid.

Get your customized thinksport™ Team Training New England water bottles today.
We are not able to ship these products, but we’re happy to meet you and deliver them to you in person.

Each bottle costs $20 (including CT sales tax).
Cash or checks (made payable to TTNE) accepted.

Email Lynne or Janice directly and we’d be glad to meet you.

Stay tuned, we hope to post some other great gift ideas soon!
