Getting Started

Ready to join FFT?  Simply follow these steps to get started:

  1. Decide which coach you want to work with, and whether you are interested in group or individualized training.  Use the contact form to tell us this information. If you’re not sure which option is best for you, contact us and we’ll help you decide on the plan and coach that best meets your needs.
  2. Fill out the Triathlete Goal Form
  3. We contact you and schedule a time to discuss your  season and goals.
  4. We meet in person (if you are local) for swim, bike, and run analysis.
    1. The bike LT test may be performed by one of our sports physiology lab partners, and is typically scheduled 6-8 weeks after the start of base training.
  5. We’ll send you an Annual Training Plan (ATP) so you understand how the entire season is put together, and get you started with weekly workouts on TrainingPeaks.

Note: we prefer payment via automatically recurring electronic transfer (we like to minimize paperwork, and no coach likes to hound athletes for payment).  Checks are also acceptable.  We do not currently accept PayPal or credit cards.

Balance

By Erika Erickson As an athlete, I struggle a lot with finding and maintaining balance in my training.  This isn’t so shocking, because I struggle with finding balance also as a grad student, a friend, a daughter, a sibling, a roommate, a significant other, a…well, you get the idea – it’s hard to balance all [...]

My Top 7 Training Tools

Often friends and training partners ask me what products and tools I use for training and recovery, so I thought I would share my list of favorites. These are all tools that I find most essential to training, racing, and recovering (other than my bike, running shoes and swim goggles!) I wanted this list to be [...]

Greater Expectations – Goals for 2013 Season

From the time we’re in grade-school until we’re settled in our 20′s – some of us, even in our 30′s – we’re told that setting goals is a key, if not the key, to achieving what we want in life. Some people are better at setting goals than others. That is, they either knowingly or [...]
