Beginner Sprint Triathlon Training Plan – 8 Weeks

Not all triathlon events will offer a Super Sprint distance, but most will feature a Sprint event aimed at beginners. A sprint triathlon generally consists of a 750m swim, a 20km bike ride and a 5km run.

At almost exactly double the distance of a Super Sprint, the Sprint may seem like a considerable step up, however it is still regarded as a beginner-friendly event that’s very achievable for those with a good level of fitness. However you will need to be consistently training at a high level to ensure you can compete without injury, which is why it’s important that you find a suitable Sprint distance triathlon training plan.
