Train for an Ironman triathlon with TNT!

The Ironman distance is a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike and a 26.2-mile run. In addition, Vineman offers an AquaBike course which is the same as Ironman, but excludes the run portion.

The TNT IronTeam begins its nine- to 10-month training program in October.

Training

The training itself is broken up into three trimesters. The first three or so months is the "Base" season with anticipated weekly training of five to 11 hours. The second trimester is the "Build" phase, with anticipated weekly training of six to 13 hours. The last is the "Race" phase, with weekly-anticipated training of eight to 18 hours.

As in all Team In Training programs, we provide coach-led and past participant-led buddy trainings. The IronTeam follows a comprehensive schedule developed by the coaches, including training mileage, strength and cross training and rest days. In addition, clinics are held throughout the training period, covering topics such as nutrition, injury prevention, shoe and equipment selection, strength training and sports psychology.

Fundraising

We have many resources available to help participants reach their fundraising goals, including workshops and online tools. In addition, there are mentors, captains and a team manager available to help you with your fundraising.

Registration and More Information

Registration forms are available by contacting one of our offices. Registration costs are $100 for Vineman and $50 for Ironman Louisville and Ironman Canada.

TNT does not provide race entry for Ironman Louisville or Ironman Canada. Visit the Ironman Canada or Ironman Louisville website for information on obtaining your own general entry or community fund slot.
