FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Olympian Jennie Reed to support the Marymoor Velodrome Association’s junior program.

REDMOND, Wash, May. 9, 2013- Olympic Silver medalist Jennie Reed will be playing an instrumental role in the development of the Marymoor Velodrome’s Junior Program. Jennie Reed’s experience and passion offers a unique opportunity for developing racers to learn from a World Champion and Olympic medalist.

            New for 2013 is the addition of the Jennie Reed Foundation Junior Track Camp taking place over the weekend of June 29th and 30th. This $100 10-hour camp will allow experienced junior racers a chance to spend an entire weekend on the velodrome learning tactics, agility, nutrition, skills, and much more. This camp will prepare junior racers to move up from the junior ranks and will develop the skills and techniques needed to advance as a velodrome racer. Coached by Jennie, these juniors age 13-18 (under 13 need two years of track experience) will receive world-class tips and training advice that will greatly benefit their cycling.

            In addition to the Junior Track Camp, the Marymoor Velodrome Association is proud to announce the name changing of the junior track classes from “VeloKids” to “Jennie Reed Juniors”. The formats of these three-week classes stay the same, but new for 2013 is the presence of Jennie at one class a session! For six 1.5-hour classes, juniors aged 9-16 will learn to ride the track, learn basic skills, and near the end of the class learn how to race! In addition to the skilled class instructors, Jennie will provide excellent tips, and maybe even show off her Olympic Silver medal!
