Detailed training plans & workouts

Flexible training plans to suit your goals: 

Wellington Squad training plans are revised every year. There are separate plans for each major event we do (e.g. Half & Ironman, plus other winter focussed events), with options to suits those who have more or less training time, and those who are newer to the sport vs experienced.

Every plan includes: Specific daily workouts that can be done by heart rate, cycling power, running pace, or perceived effort

(Note these are squad-wide training plans that you can choose between and adjust to suit your availability - they are not individually written for each member of the team).
