There will be group team practices six days a week with typically a swim, bike, run, and strength component each day.
Each athlete will be challenged as an individual but be able to train and compete within the team.
There will be a varied amount of draft legal races throughout the season based on the USAT and ITU calendar. Depending on the athlete’s age and experience, they may be able to race in multiple series.
Each athlete will have an excellent opportunity to secure their elite status and begin racing in the ITU Continental Cup and beyond. Race schedules will be on an individual basis focusing on the athlete’s skill and fitness as well as the team’s goals.

Central California is the ideal location for triathlon training. Athletes will have the opportunity to train year round with excellent weather, sunny warm but not hot conditions, and across varied terrain.
San Luis Obispo (SLO) is nestled in the coastal valley region of California’s Central Coast. It is surrounded by coastal mountains near sea level (150 ft [30m] above sea level) and mere minutes from the Pacific Ocean. Mountains and desert are inland to the East and are accessible.
Several Olympic size swimming pools are available for practices. Beaches and inland lakes are within minutes that allow for real world open water swim practices. Challenging cycling routes on quiet roads along the coast as well as in the mountains, allow for gaining excellent fitness and skills practice. Fifty miles (80km) of running trails and running tracks are located in SLO.
