🏊 Conquer the Swim with Calm & Confidence
You’ll train for the 2.4-mile river swim with easy-to-follow video drills and technique-focused workouts that help you glide through the water — even if you’ve never done an open-water swim before. We’ll help you feel prepared for California’s gentle current and cool temps (around 65°F / 18°C).
🚴 Ride Strong Through the Heart of California
The 112-mile bike course is flat, fast, and beginner-friendly. Our plan eases you in with short, manageable rides, building strength and endurance over time — no guesswork, no overwhelm. You’ll be ready for the beautiful farmland roads and those amazing crowd-filled loops.
🏃 Finish the Run with a Smile
The 26.2-mile run course is scenic and flat — perfect for your first marathon after the swim and bike. We’ll prepare you with steady long runs, easy-paced recovery days, and key bricks so your legs know exactly what to do on race day.
