The Expo is FREE and open to anyone who likes to complete in triathlons or likes to swim, bike or run. I went last year and really enjoyed it... and I am certainly no cyclist and not a competitive swimmer.
They will be offering seminars on such topics as injury prevention, developing faster running times, and nutrition. There will also be running, swimming and cycling clinics-- I did the running clinic last year and LOVED it. For more information on the clinics click (here) and for more information on the seminars click (here).
The event will also feature two speakers: Troy Jacobson founder of Spinervals and National Director of Endurance Sports Training for Lifetime Fitness, and
Please also note the USAT Northeast Region Annual Membership meeting will be taking place at the expo.
The expo will take place at the Manhattan Jewish Community Center (JCC) which coincidentally hosts an awesome indoor triathlon each December (a great opportunity for first timers who are a little worried about the open water aspect of triathlons).
The JCC is located at 334 Amsterdam Avenue (at 76th Street) New York, NY 10024
For more information and to register click (here). My best advice is to register early... this event was PACKED last year!
Update (4/17/10): Jordan Metzel will no longer be speaking at Multisport. But they have added many other experts to the web-page including Dr. Paul Weiss, Jordano Quaglia, Dr. Mark Klion, Andrew Kalley, Scott Duke, Peter Duggan, Nicholas Amico, Niel Cook, and Sarah Currie.
