What type of runner are you?
0 coaches found
Running is one leg of a triathlon training week, not the whole week - and it has to hold up on tired legs after the bike. Coaches who list Triathlons among their specialties understand how to fit VDOT-based run training around swim and bike sessions instead of prescribing a standalone running plan that ignores the rest of your schedule. Your run paces still come from the VDOT methodology - individualized training paces developed from the research of Dr. Jack Daniels, a two-time Olympic medalist and exercise scientist - calibrated to your current running fitness specifically, brick workouts and all.
Whether you're training for a local sprint triathlon or a full Ironman-distance run leg, a triathlon specialist tailors run volume and intensity to the demands of your specific race distance and the rest of your training load.
Compare coach backgrounds and reviews from other triathletes they've actually coached, then message a specialist directly to talk through how run training fits your overall race plan.
