- Although swimming is the shortest leg in a Triathlon it is also the most difficult to master and gain confidence in. Omagh Triathlon Club offer up to 3 coached swim sessions per week for all swimmer skill levels including beginners.
- There is no organised club training on Saturdays to allow for other/family sport commitments or races which normally take place on Saturday mornings during race season.
- On some Sunday mornings during June and July we host supervised race route practice sessions with untimed Swim, Bike, and Run legs at Loughmacrory for triathletes to prepare in the lead up to our annual Tri the Lough and Tri a Tri events.
