Swim, bike and run built into one plan by a Jacksonville coach who races here — periodized around your job, your family, and the race on your calendar.
Triathlon isn't three training plans stapled together. Every session is placed against the other two.
Pool work that transfers to open water — sighting, pacing off a current, and starting in a crowd without burning the first ten minutes.
Florida's flat roads reward discipline over horsepower. Pacing targets are set so the bike leg sets up the run instead of ending it.
The run is where a triathlon is won or lost. Brick work and heat-adapted pacing are built in from the start, not bolted on at the end.
Training for a triathlon in Northeast Florida is its own problem. Heat and humidity build from spring onward and change what a sustainable pace actually is. The water is open, tidal and rarely flat. The terrain is unrelentingly flat, which sounds easy and quietly punishes anyone who rides without a pacing plan.
A coach who trains and races on these roads builds that into your plan from the first week — rather than handing you a template written for a different climate and a different course.
Gold is the triathlon plan — the only plan that covers all three disciplines.
