My 10 Week Sprint Triathlon Prep

By Jared Graybeal @jaredaxlgraybeal

 

By no means is this the perfect preparation to doing a sprint triathlon. This is just what I did. What I think is special about this program design is that I ran my 2 businesses, celebrated a few fun holidays, enjoyed plenty of “cheat meals”, traveled a bit, strength trained regularly and even switched from a traditional gym to a CrossFit gym 2 weeks out – without going crazy, getting too stressed out, or stressing anyone else out in the process.

 

A healthy life is about balancing your goals with your priorities.

 

All that being said, I still got an “advanced triathlete” timing, finishing at 1:22:59 for my first one. It’s not elite, but that swim was waaaaaay freaking harder than we expected (and back to the pool I go).

 

So, I would recommend doing more swimming training than I did if you want to excel at that portion, but for the rest, we crushed it!

 

Here is some info on me to give you context and help with comparison for your prep:

  • 185 lbs
  • 9% body fat
  • Absolutely horrible swimmer that sinks and didn’t learn until we started training for this
  • Exceptional biker because my leg strength but I never got on a road bike until this program
  • Experienced runner that suffers with chronic distal plantar fasciitis in both feet – with a 7:45 to 8-minute mile averages for single 5K’s

 

Step 1: Find a few triathlon’s about 10 weeks from now and commit to doing one of them mentally

 

Step 2: Find a buddy crazy enough to do it with you that is about your fitness level that you can train with most of the time (but if you can’t, move onto Step 3 either way)

 

Step 3: Choose a race, pay for it, and tell people about it so you are verbally and publicly committed. Shoot, make an Instagram post about it

 

Step 4: Begin training

 

Side note: I take all 1st Phorm supplements and 90% of what I eat is Superfit Foods (about 4 meals per day), the rest of the time – I am eating pizza, burgers, tacos or sushi. Message me for more information on my diet and/or supplement plan!
