Stop what you're doing and take a look at our brand new kit design for the 2020 season!

After several months of planning, designing and deliberating we're really excited to share the new #TeamTCUK kit design AND let you know we have a new supplier too.

When #TeamTCUK athlete, Anna Best, won her age group at the London triathlon in 2018, she was 'rewarded' with a place in the famous 'Escape from Alcatraz' triathlon 2019 in San Francisco. Anna saw the race as an unmissable opportunity and, with the expert guidance of coach James, began preparing for a truly memorable day tackling cold water, dodging sharks & sea lions, climbing plenty of hills on the bike and confronting a 400-step 'sand ladder' on the run. Find out how she got on in her inspirational blog post!

Turning 40 proved to be a turning point in #TeamTCUK athlete, Sandra Hunter's triathlon career: she decided to celebrate her birthday milestone by entering her first ever full distance triathlon - Ironman Switzerland. Getting her goggles knocked off in the swim, feeling like a pro on Heartbreak Hill, perfecting a new skill on lap 2 of the bike course and smashing through the marathon in just over four hours, Sandra finished a fanastic 6th in her age group!

Sun protection is an essential piece of any triathlete's kit for outdoor training sessions and when racing. Good news. We've found a brilliant product that provides 8 hours of UVA & UVB sun filter protection (ideal for your race day supporters too!), is water & sweat resistant and is easy to apply.

Over to TCUK coach and athlete Kirsten Howells to tell you all about it!

Good question! Over to Jon Hodgkinson, founder of Real Food Function and our resident nutritionist here at #TeamTCUK to explain all the differences between a sports drink and a recovery drink.

Missing the team!! Thanks to everyone who attended. We had two fantastic camps at Sands Beach Resort, Lanzarote this year and we can't wait to return in 2020. 

With the 2019 race season now open, it’s time to start thinking about planning a course review and race recce; otherwise referred to as ‘know your enemy!’

Within the final weeks of training in the lead up to an Ironman, many athletes will begin to ask themselves the question: “Am I ready for my race?” Coach James has a few answers...

We are going back to Morzine for the fourth year as we have become somewhat addicted to swimming in alpine lakes, riding stunning cols and running next to alpine rivers and along mountain tops! What’s not to love right??

This year our #TeamTCUK camp is two weeks later than previous years which helps avoid big UK triathlons like Staffs 70.3 and Outlaw half which sit a couple of weeks either side of the camp. The main reason for going two weeks later, however, is so the lake water will have had chance to warm up more!!

Your weekly training plan will always include Zone 2 training sessions (they're the ones in green), but why are they included so often?

The aim of training in Zone 2 is to improve your endurance by working at an aerobic intensity i.e. a sustainable pace that you can maintain throughout the duration of the session. You'll notice that your long bike and run sessions are usually set at this pace, for example.

Here's Coach James with a great explanation of the importance of working in Zone 2 and how our bodies need variety in triathlon training.
