Running Training - All You Need To Know For Triathlon Success. Home › Running Science-based information and advice to help you develop a successful triathlon running training programme. How well do you run off the bike? Do you want to run faster? Running training for a triathlon is different to training for just running on its own. Triathlon is one sport, not three combined.

Triathlon running is about being able to compete as close to your straight best time, even when fatigued from the swim and bike. The very best triathlon runners manage to run within seconds of their best times for the run distance even after they have swum and biked. Your running training programme must integrate with your swim and bike programme to get the best performance on race day, and it must make you a better triathlon runner. We see a lot of people who set great times in training and then look confused when a race performance doesn’t reflect this.
