Extra information:-

This will be an unmarked course aside from the designated check-in points and you will need to self-navigate using your own map. You will be required to be self-sufficient for the duration of your run and will need to carry your own nutrition, fuel, and water with you either in a backpack or race belt. This will be checked and validated by the team prior to the race start. The race takes place in a beautiful part of the world that we are lucky to have on our doorstep. You will be running across farmers' fields and private land therefore we always ask that you respect the country code at all times.

Training the Swimming Energy systems

As triathletes were all familiar with the 5 training zones but in swimming, we like to make things more scientific and slightly more technical. This month I will be explaining the Swimming Energy systems with an easy-to-follow guide to help you put together your own swim session plan.

Out of interest which Activity Wales races are you doing??

Top Tip - Start with a sprint tri early in the season. Swansea is a good one to get your confidence up as the swim is in SA1 Dock which is a great environment as you don’t have to battle the seas tide and currents.

‘Plan some regular swim sets’

It’s important to keep your threshold swimming going over during the ‘off’ season. Below you find two swim sessions which will help you going into the winter months. Try these twice a week and record your times. You can adjust the rest times and distances according to your ability. Feel free to reach out to the coaches at Heathwood swimming in Cardiff for extra help or any questions you may have regarding swim sets or drills.
