A week with the TCF squad
Pick the sessions that fit your week.
Think of the schedule à la carte, not as a checklist. No one makes every session—and you don’t have to either. There’s no fixed number you need to attend; choose the sessions that fit your week.
Start where you are. Build from there. Your TrainingPeaks plan gives your week its structure, including the group workouts. Come when you can; if you can’t make a coached session, you can still follow the workout on your own. We’ll build your training progressively, not all at once.

MORE THAN A TRAINING PLAN
The best piece of gear you can get is a training buddy.
Triathlon is hard enough. Getting up and showing up is easier when your training buddies share the same routines, struggles and goals. The café stop and the conversations afterwards are part of the experience too.
TRAINING THAT FITS REAL LIFE
Triathlon training plan or group training?
For triathletes in Helsinki and Espoo, the right structure depends on your race, your current training and the time you can give each week. The TCF squad provides coached swim, bike and run sessions. Basic Coaching adds a plan built around your target race and a monthly feedback call. One-to-One adds a personalized plan and weekly coaching calls; places are currently full.
Begin with the race and the week you have.
A useful triathlon training plan considers your goal distance, experience, available time and recovery. The goal is a week you can repeat, not a perfect week on paper.
Train with people, not just a calendar.
Choose the squad sessions that fit your schedule. Current swim, bike and run locations are shared in the weekly training information because facilities and seasons change.
Adjust as you progress.
Basic Coaching includes a monthly call to review how training is going. One-to-One offers weekly calls and individual follow-up when a place becomes available.

Good to know
A few things before you join.
Triathlon can feel like a lot at first. Here’s how training with TCF works in practice.
Do I have to join every group session?
No. There’s no fixed number of sessions to attend. Pick the coached workouts that fit your week and your life.
What if I can’t make a group session?
You can still follow the session on your own. If your coaching option includes an individual plan, your TrainingPeaks plan gives you structure for the rest of the week too.
I’m new to triathlon. Can I start gradually?
Absolutely. We welcome beginners as well as experienced athletes. Start from your current level, join what feels manageable, and build your training progressively.
How do I keep up with session details?
Attendance is managed through Nimenhuuto, and the team uses WhatsApp for day-to-day training and squad updates. The weekly message and current training plan carry the latest workout and location details.
