EVENT DESCRIPTION
TRI247 WINTER SERIES
Every Wednesday at 7pm GMT, Tri247 present a triathlon focused workout brought to you by a guest ‘coach’. This will include sessions by pro triathletes, coaches and notable characters associated with the sport.
The workouts are designed to add variety and interest to your weekly training schedule over the Winter.
This week’s workout has been set by LUCY GOSSAGE, there are 12 components to this Christmas holidays session. Plenty of rest but several medium and hard intervals too, this 81 minute session should burn off the excess calories from the Christmas celebrations.
Lucy Gossage - an 8 time Professional Ironman Champion, 9th place finisher at Kona 2016, trains and races whilst still working as a Cancer Doctor in the UK.

ABOUT GROUP WORKOUTS
Zwifters line up in the starting area just like a normal event and once the event starts, workout mode begins. Everyone stays together regardless of power output. That's right, if you're outputting 100W and another Zwifter is outputting 400W you will stay in exactly the same position relative to each other. Only if you stop pedaling and fall 6 meters behind the group will the rubber-banding stop.
HELPFUL HINT
We highly recommend doing one of the FTP tests as the estimated FTP can be inaccurate and make the difficulty level of the workouts too high for your current fitness level.
