TRI247 Winter Series: Harry Wiltshire's Grim Reaper
Group Workout
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 about 60 minutes long and designed to add variety and interest to your weekly training schedule over the Winter.
This week’s workout comes from super-swimmer and ITU cross-over, Harry Wiltshire. Harry has raced extensively on the World Series and World Cup circuit being ranked as high as top 25 in the World, and is regularly seen leading the race out of the water.
He moved up to long distance racing in 2012 and went on to win his first Ironman distance race that year having led from gun to tape.
In the past few years, Harry has focused on the World Ironman Championships in Kona finishing 21st overall in 2017 in a time of 8 hrs 35 mins.

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.
