COACH’S TIPS OPTIMISE YOUR TRAINING

MANAGE YOUR TIME

Organise your triathlon training around your work and family commitments and make sure you plan in time to get the work done.

SET TARGETS

Set yourself targets for each session, week and race; be realistic but also challenge for yourself.

DO YOUR RESEARCH

Research the sport, speak to athletes, watch online and immerse yourself. Never be afraid to ask questions.

Get the right kit

Don’t overspend on kit you won’t need. Stick to the basics at this early stage and always remember to test your kit out pre-race.
