To help you maintain your fitness during a time of postponed triathlon races, we have created a 6-week maintenance plan to keep you motivated, fit and strong throughout the spring season. This 6-week plan is geared for triathletes who are (have been) training for a triathlon event this summer.

Within this 6-week plan, you will receive a variety of structured bike and run workouts and brick (bike/run) sessions, as well as strength and plank sessions. All strength and plank sessions include a YouTube video link for you to follow along with Marni during the assigned strength/plank workout (videos were created during the Trimarni 10-day spring challenge). The strength/plank sessions include minimal equipment (ex. stretch cord, cans, stability ball, weights, stretch band). If you have access to open water, we have also included 2-3 weekly open water swim workouts for you. Otherwise, we have swim dryland workouts as a substitute for swimming. We are confident you will enjoy this plan as it will keep you focused for your long-term goals and challenged with a variety of training sessions. Workouts can be done inside or outside, however we created the plan with the vision that most of your workouts will be performed indoors.

How do I access this plan?
Once you purchase the training plan, we will send you a link within 24 hours to upload the plan to your Training Peaks account. For more information on accessing and applying your plan, click HERE.

Do I need a Training Peaks account?
Yes. All of our training plans are delivered and utilized on Training Peaks. Here's the link for Training Peaks. It should only take a few minutes to set up your account and you'll be good to go for the challenge. 

Do I need any special equipment/gadgets?
We do provide several workout files if you’d like to sync the workout to Training Peaks (or a 3rd party software program like Rouvy or Zwift). You can use zones, heart rate, power or keep it simple with RPE (ratings of perceived exertion).

Average weekly “swim” training volume (dry land or open water): 2 hours
Average weekly bike training volume: 5.5 hours

We look forward to the opportunity to help you get through this stressful time. The one ingredient you’ll always need for the journey of life - and in sport - is persistence. The power to keep going and not give up will conquer all other obstacles. Combine that with positivity, energy and passion as you discover new ways to overcome challenging situations. When you put your mind to something and are willing to do everything it take, you’ll also need patience, flexibility and creativity. You may encounter many defeats but never let yourself be defeated.
