A structured guide from training through race day

Alison Freeman’s guide brings the three disciplines of triathlon—swimming, cycling, and running—together with the practical work of preparing for an event. It combines skill and fitness guidance with structured plans for sprint, Olympic, and half-distance races, plus options to adjust training around individual goals and areas needing support. Race-weekend preparation also has a place here, including fueling, transitions, packing, and gear selection. The book is designed to build on athletes’ existing experience, whether they are preparing for a first event or looking to develop their approach across the sport.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Beginner and intermediate triathletes preparing for an event
  • Athletes seeking structured plans for sprint, Olympic, or half-distance races
  • Triathletes wanting guidance on skills and race-weekend logistics

Book overview

A triathlon is no small feat--train with guidance from a certified coach.

Unlocking Triathlon is the ultimate tool every triathlete needs leading up to race day. Whether you have experience with one sport or all three, this guide aims to meet you where you are and build from there.

Maybe you have already completed your first triathlon but feel like you have more to learn, or maybe this will be your debut race; either way, the information provided within this book will supplement the experience you already have and fill in the gaps across swimming, biking, and running. Author Alison Freeman is a triathlete, writer, and USA Triathlon Level III Coach who specializes in guiding beginner and intermediate athletes through their first triathlon experiences.

This book equips you to train smarter, with skill and fitness development tailored to your goals, and prepares you for the details of race weekend: fueling, transitions, packing lists, and more. Use the highly structured training plans for sprint-, Olympic-, and half-distances to build the ideal season, with customization options to focus on areas in which you will need extra support.

With essential training and skill techniques for swimming, cycling, and running, alongside race preparation, gear selection, plan adjustments, and training strategies, Unlocking Triathlon is your go-to guide for all things triathlon.
