TRAINING TIMETABLE
At Ful-on Tri, we welcome everyone regardless of ability or experience, and our members include all levels from complete beginners to podium-chasers and even a couple of pros.
We organise all our sessions so you’re always training at the right level for you to help you improve. As well as an outstanding team of qualified coaches (who are all volunteers within the club), you’ll find an incredibly friendly & supportive atmosphere.
Whatever your goals, from running your first 5km, finishing your first triathlon, simply getting a bit fitter and meeting new friends, to achieving that Ironman PB, winning your AG, or racing for your country, Ful-on Tri can help you get there. And you’ll have a lot of fun in the process!
