The race fee includes a novice triathlon training session held at the race venue and delivered by the club's level one and two coaches. The session covers the venue layout, basic equipment guidance, a transition demonstration including mounting and dismounting a bike, and a short pool swim technique segment focused on front crawl or breaststroke. Participants are expected to bring their own bike for practice. Entrants will be contacted about attending the training session.
