Is This Club For You?

BTC is a volunteer-led organization dedicated to fostering the sport of triathlon in Brooklyn and the greater New York area. Its membership is diverse, comprised of individuals from all backgrounds and abilities—you may find yourself running or cycling next to an actor, lawyer, artist or student.

BTC was founded and operates as an organization for ANYONE interested in triathlon. In fact, most members are relatively new to the sport and have only competed in a few triathlons, or are looking to do their first.  The club does have a number of experienced triathletes, but they only represent a small part of membership. Less experienced members are encouraged to ask questions of the more experienced members—they were all in your shoes at one point and are happy to help.

One of BTC’s strengths is that the experienced members lead many group activities. Newer members should feel welcome to ask questions and learn from the veterans. You’ll continue to hear about more group training opportunities, educational seminars, sponsor discounts and social events. We encourage everyone to participate in as many activities as possible. If you’ve been hesitant to come out for a workout because you feel you might be the slowest one, we can assure you that you’ll feel welcome.

We can only grow and become the best club possible based on the level of our members’ participation. It’s up to all members to make the club the best it can be. So if you’re asking yourself if this club is for you, we hope your answer is a resounding “yes!” Happy training and hope to see you in the park!
