So knowing how to choose a triathlon coach can be the best investment you make in your triathlon. Get it wrong and you're paying monthly for a plan that doesn't actually know you. Here's how to actually tell the difference. Why This Decision Matters More Than It Seems A coach isn't just someone who writes your sessions.

You've stood in open water at 6am more times than you'd like to admit, practising sighting, practising the panic of a washing-machine start, practising the exact 3.8km you were supposed to swim on Sunday. That swim isn't happening now. IRONMAN has confirmed that the swim leg of IRONMAN Leeds 2026 will not go ahead, citing water quality concerns linked to algae at Waterloo Lake.

It won't tell you what the week actually feels like, how quickly Roundhay Park fills up, why the run course is the best part of your supporters' day even if it's the hardest part of yours, or the one mistake almost every first-time spectator makes.

It's a fair question, and most of the answers online aren't especially honest about it. Some plans promise a 70.3 finish on four hours a week, which is optimistic at best. Others assume you can train fifteen hours a week with no job, no family and no other life to speak of.

You've just closed the laptop. There are children to feed, dinner to cook, and roughly ninety minutes before the evening disappears entirely. Somewhere in your phone is a training plan that says today calls for a two hour ride. If you've felt that specific kind of quiet panic, you're not alone, and you're not doing anything wrong. Most of the training advice aimed at triathletes is written for people with a very different life to yours: no job to be at by nine, no children...]]></description><link>https://www.limitx.org/post/blog-time-poor-triathlon-training-70-3</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a7203cc35ba0c880a2ff790</guid><pubDate>Tue, 04 Aug 2026 15:45:31 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6f6784_0b6039476d014e438d82ee163598f967~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>burtonwill</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
