Equinox, the high-end fitness center chain popular in NYC and other major metropolitan areas is hosting an indoor triathlon competition in eight national regions including NYC February 13, 14 and 20 at its Columbus Circle, 63rd St and Greenwich Village locations respectively. The top 75 “qualifying members” will win a spot in the 2010 Escape from Alcatraz triathlon in San Francisco. I’ve always been a fan of Equinox for the quality of the experience they provide their members, having coached a number of them to the finish line of their choosing over the years.

Indoor triathlon is a great way to break the boredom of winter triathlon training.  Asphalt Green and others have been doing it for years. Check out the Equinox Indoor Triathlon page here. For those members that do qualify, we hope you’re reading this and consider our triathlon coaching and sports nutrition services before you head out to California and the frigid waters of San Fran harbor and the infamous sand ladder…
