Tri Swim

Thursday Training Plan – Iron-Distance SWIM Training Plan (INTERMEDIATE 12-Week Plan) – Start Any Monday + Reusable

When you cross the finish line of your Iron-distance Swim, you will swim faster than you have in previous attempts.

Designed for Intermediate Iron-distance Athletes who are looking to compete in an Iron-distance event, the primary goal of this training plan is to prepare you to set a PB for the Swim during YOUR event.

Tri Swim Coach

Crafted by myself, Ray Boardman PGDipSportsMed, PGDipRehab, PGCertSc (Exercise Science), BSc (Anatomy), DipSportsStudies this plan encapsulates my passion for the sport, my experience from completing dozens of Half and Full Iron-distance distance finishes and my success coaching hundreds of triathletes.

Starting 12 weeks before the YOUR next Iron distance, this plan progresses through phases to build you to your peak performance. Each week typically contains three swims each week. You will build up to 4,000 metres of swimming in a single session. Although not necessary, I recommend using a swimming monitor (eg. Garmin Forerunner 735, 920, or 935) to track your sessions in the pool.

Prior to using this plan, you should be able to complete a swim of 1,500 meters or yards continuously, and 3,000 metres or yards total within a workout.

Purchase of this plan gives you access to my fortnightly coaching calls where you can ask me any training or racing-related questions.
