This course will teach you everything you need to know to complete your first triathlon with confidence. Taught by IRONMAN triathlete and British Triathlon-certified coach Chris Worfolk.

We’ll start right from the basics and build up to advanced techniques. We’ll cover swim, bike and run, of course, but also all of the bits that connect triathlon together and the strategies and secrets that will allow you to complete the entire event. Including:

How transition works
Building a training schedule with brick sessions
Strength, stretching and recovery

Everything you need to know for race day

We’ll get into the details of each part so that you can arrive at your first event feeling confident that you know what you are doing and can focus on enjoying the day. For example:

How to set up your transition area
How to get your wetsuit off in a hurry
How to keep your goggles fog-free
What time should I arrive?
What about bathroom breaks?
What should I do with my keys?

We’ll have video lessons, slides, downloadable resources and step-by-step practical exercises for you to follow along with. And, if you get stuck, I’m on hand to answer any questions you may have.
