Triathlon Training

If you are new to triathlons or want some advice on how to train, then you're in the right place! Let me first preface by saying we are not experts nor are we certified coaches, but we have done this for several years and can let you in on our experiences and the best place to find advice on how to train. Below are helpful resources for each leg of the triathlon; some of the articles give advice for longer triathlons so take that into consideration when incorporating it into your training.


Here is a beginner and intermediate training schedule. Feel free to adjust it to your schedule or effort level.


Triathlon Resources:

A brick is when you pair two events together, for example, swim and bike or bike and run, etc.
