Aquathlon training plans, built for your goal
Aquathlon's short format leaves little room for a weak leg to hide — a strong swimmer who can't run off wet legs, or a strong runner who struggles in open water, both lose more time than the format's short distance suggests. SportBlox builds your aquathlon training plan around your distance goal, schedule and race date, and works with your Strava data.
Who it's for
First aquathlon
A balanced introduction to both disciplines plus basic transition practice.
Improving your run off the swim
Transition-focused sessions training your legs to find running rhythm straight out of the water.
Racing a specific distance
Pace-focused, periodised training building toward your event's exact swim and run distances.
A week of aquathlon training
Example: a sprint-distance aquathlete six weeks from race day. Your own plan is built around your event, level and schedule.
How SportBlox personalises it
Your goal & event date
Sessions build toward the specific goal and date you set, with a taper if you're racing or competing.
Your skill level
Volume and intensity scale to where you actually are, from Inexperienced to Professional.
Your stated weaknesses
Tell SportBlox about things like running off the swim on wet legs, transition speed, open water sighting under race pressure and the plan weights sessions toward fixing them.
Your schedule
The plan fits the days and time you say you have — not an idealised training week.
Works with Strava
Connect Strava and your logged sessions feed back into pacing and progression.
Aquathlon training plan FAQ
Does this work with Strava across both swim and run?
Yes — connect Strava and both disciplines feed back into pacing and progression.
How do I train two sports without doubling my hours?
Tell SportBlox how many hours you actually have and it prioritises the sessions with the biggest race-day impact.
Is this suitable for a first aquathlon?
Yes, set your goal distance and skill level and the plan introduces transition practice gradually.
Does it include transition (brick) training?
Yes, sessions combine swim and run back-to-back so your legs adapt to running immediately after swimming.
Will it taper before race day?
Yes, add your race as an event and the final week reduces volume across both disciplines while keeping sharpness.
