Do the math
One plan, or all of them
This plan costs $59.95 one-time on TrainingPeaks, and it trains you for one race. Team 80/20 Gold is $16.58/month when paid annually for every plan we make — plus TrainingPeaks Premium and Mind of Matt coaching. Race more than once a year and the membership isn’t a splurge; it’s the cheaper way to train.
Questions
Plan FAQ
How long is the Intro to Sprint Triathlon (Coach Guided) plan?
The Intro to Sprint Triathlon (Coach Guided) plan is 6 weeks long. Pricing starts at $59.95 on TrainingPeaks, or it's included with Team 80/20.
How does 80/20 work across three sports?
The 80/20 intensity balance applies to your combined swim, bike, and run time: about 80 percent of it at low intensity. That discipline matters even more in triathlon than in single-sport training, because three sports give you three chances a day to accidentally train too hard.
Which intensity metrics do the triathlon plans use?
Your choice, per sport. Versions are available combining heart rate, pace, and power — for example run pace with bike power. Pick the combination matching the devices you train with; the session structure is the same in every version.
Which level should I choose?
Levels are weekly-volume tiers, from Level 0 for first-timers to Level 3 for high-volume competitive age-groupers. Choose based on the training load you can realistically sustain alongside work and life — the plan works when you complete it, not when it impresses you on paper.
How is the plan delivered?
Through TrainingPeaks. After purchase you apply the plan to your TrainingPeaks calendar, and every workout appears with its structure and intensity targets. Workouts sync to most watches and head units, and your completed sessions are scored against the plan automatically.
Is this plan included in a Team 80/20 membership?
Yes. Team 80/20 is $16.58/month when paid annually and includes every 80/20 training plan, TrainingPeaks Premium, and Mind of Matt coaching. If you expect to use more than one plan, the membership costs less than buying plans individually.
