Research suggests that between 70-90% of runners will get injured each year.  This statistic is slightly less for triathletes due to the cross-training nature.  However, injury is still very prevalent.   Therefore, the main goal of this training program is to provide you the opportunity to participate in the sport you love while minimizing your risk for injury.  Thankfully the effort you put into injury prevention strategies is the same focus that will provide you with greater speed and power.  Thus, participation in this training program is a win-win to foster optimal performance.  Injury be gone!
