The triathlete's complete guide to heart-rate zone training
  When people typically make their first foray into triathlon, motivation is high while fitness is low. It’s a combination that means large gains can be made in a relatively short period, which helps to embed the philosophy that hard work pays dividends.   But while it’s true to an extent, those who stick with endurance sport soon learn a harsh lesson:...
Can anyone take part in triathlons? What if I'm not very fit?
  Anyone who’s not done a triathlon always says to me 'gosh you must be really fit!' But to be honest when I first started triathlon I was far from it, but I just wanted to give it a go.

Benchmark your off-season fitness
  Once you’re into the winter mode it’s important to get regular information on how things are going performance-wise.   Rarely does this data contradict what your training diary and intuitive hunch would already suggest, but it’s still good practice to get a measure of how unfit you are, how much you’ve progressed or how on track you are. Data either proves...
How to take part in your first triathlon: all your questions answered
  What’s a good time to aim for in my first sprint triathlon?   Nick: As it’s your first triathlon, it’s key not to put too much expectation on your performance.

What if I finish last in a triathlon?
  Worrying about finishing last is a concern many people have when racing a triathlon for the first time but it shouldn’t put you off giving triathlon a go.   It really doesn’t matter where you come in the race, it’s just about trying to enjoy it. Also regardless of speed you’re doing better than most people, more than a third of...
The ultimate guide to your first triathlon
  To minimise the risks of coming unstuck at your first triathlon, we’ve asked some top coaches to provide expert insights to take you through that first event, from the nail-biting build-up to the celebratory beverage after the race, whatever triathlon distance it is; super sprint, sprint, standard distance – or, for the crazies among you, something even longer.   How fit...
How to pace your first sprint-distance triathlon
  Your first triathlon is a high-speed puzzle that you’re trying to solve while swimming, biking and running. What you’re trying to figure out is how fast you can go without blowing up before the finish. But if you’re taking on your first sprint-distance event, your perfect pace is an unknown quantity.   The more you race, the more experience you’ll gain...
What to check on your bike before you race
  1.MAKE SURE THE BIKE FITS   An ill-fitting, high-end bike won’t serve you as well as a correctly fitting, entry-level one. A good local bike shop should be able to at least help you get the correct size of bike and many shops are now offering fit services. If you have the budget, getting a full professional fit before you venture...
What's the shortest triathlon?

Why you should do a triathlon   What are the different triathlon distances?   How fit do you have to be to do a triathlon?   Held at a wide number of beginner-friendly races, a super-sprint triathlon involves the following:   Swim:...
How fit do you have to be to do a triathlon?
  Triathlon is one of the world’s most inclusive sports, with people of all levels of fitness taking part, but how much fitness do you actually need to take part in one?

What is fartlek training?
  The definition of the Swedish word Fartlek is 'speed play' in English and it means running, cycling and swimming at different speeds.   What is fartlek running?   Using running as an example, fartleck involves no more than picking up speed when and wherever you feel like it on, say, an eight-mile run. There’s no structure and nor should there be. So...
How to get your triathlon training back on track
  The transition phase from winter to pre-season is when you should take some time out to check whether or not you're on target for your first race. Assess how much training you've done, measure how fast you can swim, bike and run, and jump onto the scales.   If you've trained as fully as possible, well done. If you haven't, don't...
