The following program is designed for individuals seeking to complete their first sprint triathlon using an introductory training plan. Prerequisites for starting this program include:
Ability to swim 100m front crawl.
Have a road safe bike and helmet.
Be able to jog for 5-10 minutes continuously.
This really is the 'anyone' can 'tri-it' sprint triathlon program! Be sure to follow the program as closely as possible so that you are physically prepared for your first triathlon. This includes sticking to set rest days in order to allow your body to recover and adapt to the training plan.
The program includes 2 days of running, swimming and biking each week. For those looking to increase the challenge slightly, there are two optional workouts each week: a 3rd run and a longer swim workout is included.
