Ironman Sunshine Coast 70.3 – 26 Aug 2018

The Ironman Sunshine Coast 70.3 offers the best of everything – sunshine, endless coastline, lush landscapes and plenty of smiles. With a world class course, amazing surfside transition and an awesome finish on the Esplanade, this event is a highlight on the Ironman 70.3 calendar. 

We’ve been waiting for this event!  SUPER-EXCITED to be launching our first Ironman 70.3 training program. The Ironman Sunshine Coast 70.3 rates as one of the best!

If you’re a seasoned triathlete who has completed a few sprint and standard-distance triathlons – this is your next challenge!

The swim takes place at Mooloolaba’s spectacular surf beach – starting and finishing at the ‘Loo with a View’.  Cheering crowds await you as you exit transition for the cycle-leg via Mooloolaba Esplanade towards the Motorway. And the run takes in striking shores and a spectator lined course, finishing in the heart of Mooloolaba.

Training Program

Starting on Sat 12 May 2018, our 16-week training program is based on 5 x weekly coached group sessions* and 2 x weekly individual training sessions. Your training plan will be sent to you each week via Training Peaks – this will include 7 x weekly training sessions.  Each training plan is tailored to fit within your lifestyle. We understand how busy life is, so our aim is to balance your training sessions around your day-to-day commitments.   (* varies across each week)

Our coaches are qualified across the sport of triathlon – swim, bike and run. Each coach has unique experience in competing in triathlons (across various distances), as well as taking part in the ITU Age-Group World Championships.

“That finish shoot I had dreamed and visualised for one year, finally came true. The journey from start to finish was worth every sacrifice. I was an Ironman 70.3!”  (Michelle Nicholas, 2017 Ironman Cairns 70.3) 

Achieve something special!

If you’ve been tempted to step up the distance from short to middle, to a mixed-distance – then we’ve got two great programs to support two awesome events!  

Triathlon is a beautiful sport. It is such an equaliser. Where one person is strong in one discipline, they are challenged in another. Conversely, where another person is strong in a different discipline, they are challenged in another. That’s the beauty of triathlon. It’s a winner for everyone!

Which is why we are SO excited about launching our latest training programs for two awesome upcoming triathlon events:
