    ATHLETE’S GUIDE TRANSILVANIA ETU 2019 MULTISPORT TRIATHLON EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIPS CROSS DUATHLON 1 1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 INTRODUCTION "I have had so many very positive reports about the events delivered in Transylvania and of course, I have seen the great advertising and original branding that really raises the profile of these events. 2019 will be my chance to experience this all first-hand as I will be attending the Târgu Mureș ETU Multisport European Championships. RENATO BRETRANDI President European Triathlon Union From a regional event, back in 2016, to a successful Cross Duathlon event in 2017 and then as the host venue in 2018 for both Cross Duathlon and Cross Triathlon, the city has shown it can welcome, accommodate and support large numbers of athletes. It is for ETU an essential that racing is affordable and this is something that has been delivered by the LOC in Transylvania. A hard-working and dedicated team with strong ties across the local community will deliver a series of races; sprint and standard duathlon, cross triathlon, cross duathlon, Aquabike, Aquathlon and of course the Middle Distance Triathlon. Alongside these main events, I see that there are a number of side events, including the now famous “Dracula Night Run and Night Swim”. Something for everyone. With over 1,600 athletes registered, this is going to be a wonderful opportunity for athletes from all over Europe and, from a look at the lists, a few visitors from outside Europe, to share racing experiences, test themselves over challenging courses and to make and renew friendships.
  • How to Warm up Correctly for an Aquathlon

    How to Warm up Correctly for an Aquathlon

    How to warm up correctly for an Aquathlon We all know it is important to do an adequate warm up prior to training and racing. What is not so clear is why we need to warm up, and what is the best type of warm up to prepare you for your aquathon workouts and the event itself. Why do a warm up? There are 3 key benefits a warm up, according to experts: 1. To aid the supply of oxygen to muscles and therefore improve muscles ability to work under more intense effort 2. To raise your body temperature to help your muscles become more flexible and efficient. 3. To slowly raise your heart rate, preparing your heart for the added stress swimming and running will place on it. What should you incorporate in a warm up? Here are 5 tips for achieving the perfect warm up before running: 1. Start with 5 to 10 minutes of easy running. This should feel slow and comfortable to get the blood flowing. This will aid the flow of oxygen to the muscles. Do not worry about how you feel at this stage, as often you will feel sluggish at the start of each workout. 2. Do 5 to 10 minutes of dynamic stretching. Static stretching before running can cause muscle and/or tendon injuries. It should be reserved for after running. Instead, after jogging slowly for 5 to 10 minutes, perform dynamic stretches to prepare your body for your run. Dynamic stretched include specific running drills and activation exercises which work on various aspects of the running technique.

    Adirondack Poetry: "Beneath Every Stone Hides a Poem"

    Adirondack Poetry: "Beneath every stone hides a poem" The following bibliography was developed by SLU student Holly Brown ’14 during a summer fellowship in Special Collections, Owen D. Young Library, St. Lawrence University with library staff from special collections and digital collections… In her 1958 bibliography, Dorothy Plum took a broad geographic view of what the “Adirondack” region included. Upon consideration, we have narrowed our definition somewhat. For the purposes of this bibliography an Adirondack poem is • Set within the administrative boundary of the Park known as the “Blueline” • Does not include Lake Champlain • Does not include pre-19th century poetry of the Revolutionary and French and Indian Wars No bibliography is ever really complete, and we view this one as a work-in-progress.
