Personal triathlon coaching
I coach ambitious triathletes towards the race they want to deliver. We build the fitness, then practise the decisions that let them use it.
Your training should be specific enough to change when your response, your week or the race demands it.
I'm Tom Fokkens-Ancery. I work directly with every athlete I coach. Meet your coach.

01 An athlete’s race
For a year I waited for a week with more time in it. It never came. The plan had to work on the eight hours I had, not the twelve I kept hoping for.
02 Coaching fit
Choose the situation closest to yours. Here is the first coaching decision I would make.
I would identify the two or three sessions your goal depends on, then build the rest of the week around the time and recovery you actually have.
If your week is reliably predictable, a plan may be enough. Explore training plans ↗
I would look at where your previous races changed, then practise the pacing and fuelling decisions that protect the final kilometres.
You can also start by studying the course. Explore Race Intelligence ↗
I would test intake and effort in sessions that resemble the race. The useful numbers are the ones you can repeat when tired, not the ones that look neat on paper.
For a first fuelling estimate, use the calculator. Start with the fuelling calculator ↗
I would work back from the demands of the new race, keep your existing strengths, and choose the next block by the capacity you need most.
A structured plan is another place to begin. Explore training plans ↗
03 Working with Tom
A file tells me what happened. Your account of the session tells me why. We use both to decide when to press on, change course or recover.
Pacing, fuelling and restraint belong in training, where we can test them. By the start line, the important choices should feel familiar.
