EVENT DESCRIPTION
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT

A series of four efforts that gradually build in intensity separated by short rest periods to regroup and go again. Each effort is punctuated by a hard burst to simulate overtaking another athlete within the thirty second passing rule.

WORKOUT WITH THE SPECIALIZED ZWIFT ACADEMY TRI TEAM

Join us for 10 weeks of killer workouts with the tri team. You’ll find a fresh and furious mix of riding and running workouts - sweet spot training, FTP boosting, tempo workouts and more – plus drop-ins from our team members as they train with you on Zwift. Hop on and give them a shoutout as you tackle these intervals and level up. If you’re training for your own event, or curious about signing up for a triathlon, take up the challenge and work out with us.

Rachael Norfleet, Golo Philippe Röhrken, Geert Janssens, and Bex Rimmington make up the Specialized Zwift Academy Tri Team. World-class professional triathlete and mentor Tim Don helps guide them on the road to Kona. This is your chance to get to know the athletes, ask your questions, wish them luck, and get a solid workout in.

ABOUT GROUP WORKOUTS

Zwifters line up in the starting area just like a normal event and once the event starts, workout mode begins. Everyone stays together regardless of power output. That's right, if you're outputting 100W and another Zwifter is outputting 400W you will stay in exactly the same position relative to each other. Only if you stop pedaling and fall 6 meters behind the group will the rubber-banding stop.

HELPFUL HINT

We highly recommend doing one of the FTP tests as the estimated FTP can be inaccurate and make the difficulty level of the workouts too high for your current fitness level.
