The Transitions Area is NOT a rest stop. They are another leg of a triathlon, but shorter. Most people would not do a triathlon without having swum, run or cycled, right? Same should go for transitions.
At our transition clinic, we shared some great tips to make those transition smooth, reviewing what to bring and how to prepare for race day. We then put those finely tuned skills into practice doing sweet spot bike intervals followed by zone 2 runs. This is a great workout to prepare and train for the transition from bike to run.

A year ago I could only tread water and had not run since childhood. With the amazing Virtual Olympic course, support, guidance, and tips from of all the folks at Team Triumph I've ended the season with my first Olympic distance triathlon under my belt and am hooked! Really looking forward to the 2025 season and even to the hard work over the winter to prepare. Karen Houle
I wanted to let you know that the Perth triathlon was a great experience, I somehow placed third in my age group! What a supportive group of participants (including Team Triumph athletes), cheering bystanders and volunteers.
Thanks to your swim lessons, I learned the technical basics and gained confidence to get back in the pool after decades. And it was really special doing this with Ann Laidlaw, my bestie for many years. We did a couple of additional swims with Kevin and Team Triumph people, also a great way to continue learning and practicing good technical form.
I will continue with lane swimming and who knows, maybe there's another triathlon in my future!
I love the accountability and the structure of the Virtual 70.3 Half Ironman training program. I don't think I would have gotten this far without the program. The accountability is huge for me!
