Welcome to GTC!

As we’re nearing the end of the 2024 triathlon season, the Guelph Triathlon Club Leadership Team is already busy planning for 2025 to ensure our members have a rewarding and memorable triathlon experience. Registration for next season begins soon!

We will continue to keep our fees low with opportunities to participate in over 200 coached workouts throughout the year as an Annual, Mid-Season, Summer, Fall, or Beginner Clinic triathlon club member. Our fees include access to workouts at the University of Guelph, the quarry. As always, Triathlon Ontario membership is a requirement for all members for insurance purposes. When you register, be sure to register as a “club member” and indicate your GTC affiliation for a $10 discount on a Triathlon Ontario membership.

We hope to see you at a workout with the Guelph Triathlon Club soon!

Cycling 4 Chemo Chairs

GTC is proud to support Cycling 4 Chemo Chairs, an initiative to raise funds to support the purchase of new chemo chairs for Grand River Regional Cancer Centre (GRRCC). This initiative is being led by Cyndy McLean, an accomplished marathoner who became a paraplegic after falling 80 feet off a cliff. Starting in March 2019, Cyndy received 21 chemotherapy treatments over 10 months for metastatic colon cancer.

This September, Cyndy is planning to do 10 rides of 21km each to raise funds for the purchase of new chemo chairs at GRRCC.

Please join GTC in supporting Cyndy and Cycling 4 Chemo Chairs by becoming a donor and/or sponsor. Please visit the project website (on the GRRCC Foundation website) for details or contact Cyndy for more information.
