The University of Louisiana at
Monroe(ULM) triathlon team started as a university activity course for 1 hour
of PE credit. From this course, taught
by PCG elite coach Lisa Colvin, a men's and women's triathlon team was
formed! After this 8 week Fall semester
course was over, students continued training with Coach Colvin, getting out of
bed to swim 3 times a week at 5:30am (and that is saying a lot for students!!),
learning to ride a bicycle, perform brick workouts and learn how to transition lightning
fast.
From this group, the ULM Men's
Triathlon Team placed 10 in the South Midwest Regional Triathlon championships
in Grand Prairie, Texas on March 18, 2012 to secure an automatically qualify
for the USAT National Collegiate Triathlon Championships in Tuscaloosa, Alabama
April 2012. CONGRATULATIONS ULM on a
great season!!
