Three Key Training Sessions Every Triathlete Needs To Maximise Performance with Coach John Mayfield

Three Key Training Sessions Every Triathlete Needs To Maximise Performance with Coach John Mayfield

As a triathlete that has to train for not one, but three sports, life can be fairly hectic.

So when we’re training, we want to make sure we’re getting the best bang for our buck out of our sessions. There’s no wasted ‘junk miles’ or sessions that aren’t helping us reach our goals.

Whether you do your own programming, are part of a squad or have a coach, there are some essentials training sessions you’re going to need to include as a triathlete.

Generously sharing his knowledge with me is TriDot coach, John Mayfield. Over the past 10 years, John ​has coached hundreds of athletes ranging from first timers to Kona qualifiers and professional triathletes. Personally he just raced Ironman Florida with a new PB of 10:57 hours.

John walks us through two swim, bike and run sessions you need to be doing. And hang around to the end for his BONUS tips on how to improve your transition.
