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 session is set by the Marketing Director of TRI247, Paul Shanley. Paul is currently training hard with the ambitious goal of racing all 6 Ironman branded events in the UK in 2018, four 70.3 distance races and 2 x full Ironmans.

A 15 minute warm up including 4 x 15 second sprints and then the main set starts. This is a series of 3 x 11 minute pyramids just below, at and just over your ftp. Focus on keeping at your preferred race cadence throughout the session.

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.
