I'm not currently a member of any training facility, do I need to be a member of a facility to join your club and is there a particular facility that your club uses? Also, are there any discounts at training facilities for club members?
No. You do not need to be a member of a particular training facility to join the RTC. However, some of the structured workouts are performed at particular training facilities and to participate in them you may need to be a member of that facility. Our weekly Saturday swim and monthly Sunday swim workouts, held at the ACAC fitness center do not require a membership. Just show your RTC membership card which can be printed from the membership area.
Currently our club members workout at many different training facilities, but in 2011 you can get access to the premier Triathlon training facility in VA at Endorphin Fitness for just $10 a month! A $20 savings!!
