Description
This plan is for the Advanced Draft Legal Triathlon competitor. The focus of this 8 week program is on the different demands you will see regarding cycling in a draft legal triathlon verses a standard triathlon. I have spent time looking into the different demands on the cycling end between draft legal and your standard triathlon and this plan puts those findings into a plan for you. Compared to a standard triathlon plan, you will see more cycling and focuses on different zones. In order to get the most of your draft legal plan, make sure you follow the plan day by day and push through those double days! This 8 week program will prepare you for any draft legal triathlon and will have you ready to create your best performance!
Good luck! Hunter
