If you’re eyeing the Full Distance Triathlon in Chattanooga, you already know it’s no ordinary race. A swift, current-assisted swim in the Tennessee River. A challenging 112-mile bike course with over 4,000 feet of climbing. And a marathon that winds through some of Chattanooga’s most iconic spots. It’s bold, beautiful—and it demands a serious training plan.
That’s where the 36-Week Full Distance Triathlon Chattanooga Training Plan comes in. Designed for intermediate athletes, this plan blends science, structure, and support—so you toe the start line confident, prepared, and race-day ready.
