Tri 4 Schools Training Teams

Tri 4 Schools Training Teams are after-school programs that focus on both physical activity and emotional learning. Each Training Team prepares together to complete a Tri 4 Schools event.  Financial aid is available and options to apply financial aid are available on the online registration form.  Contact Rachael at rhagen@tri4schools.org with questions.  

Here is what you can expect:

• Workouts that incorporate both cardio and strength training elements
• Mindfulness activities and discussions
• Each team will host 10-14 practices with run and bike training depending on the team specific location and calendar
• Three swim lessons are included for teams training for a triathlon.  Teams training for the Bike + Run may have optional swim lessons depending sponsorship and pool availability.  

Practice calendars will vary based on the event the team is training for and the practice location.  For the spring season, teams will train for either the Waunakee Kids Triathlon on May 16 or the Sun Prairie on June 13.  Visit the Events page for more details on all Tri 4 School events included in the 2026 season.
