MARATHON SWIM TRAINING GROUP


Have you ever considered taking on a marathon swim? 


We are putting together a marathon swim training plan / group to help you get ready for the local 6k to marathon distance swim races available later in the summer, such as:

  • Kits Challenge 6k
  • Rattlesnake Island 7k
  • Newcastle Island Swim 10k
  • The Bay Challenge 10k
  • Skaha Lake Ultra 12k


The six month program will be split into two 3-month training blocks. 


Phase 1 - Base


The first three months will be pool base training with three sessions per week, gradually increasing the distance per week and setting you up with a great foundation on which to build into long distance open water swims and marathon specific swim training. 


Phase 2 - Build, Race Specific


The second three month build phase starts when local water is warm enough to comfortably swim longer distances. This could be early April for small lake swims and early June for ocean swims. Depending on the distance you are training for we might need to increase to swimming 4 or 5x per week, steadily building toward race distance swims and developing open water experience, finishing with a taper phase as we approach race day. 


What's Included?

  • Marathon swim training plan delivered via Training Peaks
  • Monthly group zoom call (FAQs, planning group swims, race prep etc.)
  • 6x fully supported long distance open water endurance swims
  • An awesome group of like minded swimmers!


You should currently be able to swim 2000m with ease at roughly 2:00 per 100m pace to join this program.
