Plan Description
If you're new to the world of long-course racing, the Full Distance Triathlon in Chattanooga might feel overwhelming. But with the right plan, mindset, and support, you can cross that finish line at Ross’s Landing with strength and pride. Our 36-week Full Distance Triathlon training plan was built specifically for beginners like you—those who are ready to commit but need structure, guidance, and steady progression to succeed.
🏊 Conquer the Swim with Calm and Confidence
The 2.4-mile swim in the Tennessee River is fast but unpredictable. That’s why we dedicate the first 12 weeks to building a strong foundation in the water—with clear video instruction on open-water techniques, body positioning, and breath control. You’ll develop not just stroke efficiency but the mental calm needed to handle a river current on race day.
🚴 Prepare for Elevation—Without Intimidation
Chattanooga’s 112-mile bike course features 4,300 feet of climbing. But don’t worry—we guide you through it step by step. From early low-intensity rides to interval-specific workouts, you’ll gradually build strength and endurance to handle the rolling terrain of US-27 with confidence (and without burning out your legs before the run).
🏃 Build Marathon-Ready Resilience
The final 26.2-mile run takes you past Chattanooga’s most scenic riverfront spots—but it’s still a marathon after a long day. Our plan integrates walk-run strategies, pacing drills, and smart recovery work so you can stay strong through every mile, especially across bridges and late-stage inclines.
🔁 Smart Brick Workouts = Strong Transitions
You’ll practice the swim-to-bike and bike-to-run transitions through structured brick sessions—so race day feels familiar, not frantic.
💬 Get the Support You Deserve
Training for a Full Distance Triathlon as a beginner can feel lonely and confusing. That’s why this plan includes direct email access to experienced coaches who will answer questions, adjust your training, and keep you motivated when life gets in the way.
