Tri and Give (TAG) will energize your daily routine and train you
to be a triathlete. We’re looking for ordinary people ready to experience an extraordinary
event. YOU will be training for the Sentinel Olympic Distance Triathlon
, Sunday, September 21st, 2008. You will swim 1 mile, bike 24 miles and run 6.2
miles. When you cross the finish line, the feeling of accomplishment is an adrenaline
rush beyond compare, with bragging rights to match.

our TAG coaches and accomplished triathletes themselves, will head up this ten-week
training program designed specifically to fit your level of fitness and ability.
The Golden Gate Triathlon Club will provide you with experienced volunteers and
membership in the club voted “Best of the Bay” three years running!
The majority of the program’s fee, minus some administrative costs, will be donated
to local charities helping fellow athletes and kids. Thanks to GGTC members, coaches
and participants, we have raised over $60,000 and shared our passion of triathlon
and sports with others.
