You too can become an Ironman

Triathlon coaching in Prague and online. Swimming, cycling and running in one plan that fits your week.

I'll help you on your way to triathlon

I will teach you to swim, bike and run, from sprint distance to Ironman.

  1. 01Technique in the pool
  2. 02A plan for all three sports
  3. 03A group and camps, so you do not have to do it alone

For beginners, the biggest challenge is usually swim technique, which we work on in a rented lane at the pool. Together we design a training plan for all three sports and talk through your performance and technique. With modern technology, much of this can also happen online.

You can join my triathlon group. Great people. None of us are top athletes, but we want to get better, and enjoying the sport is our biggest reward. I also organise triathlon camps where we train together and find motivation.

My typical trainee is someone with a sporting background in one of the disciplines who is new to triathlon. I guide them through the early stages towards their main goal, usually a half Ironman or a full Ironman within a year or two.

About me

Licensed triathlon coach and multiple-time Ironman finisher

I started triathlon late and without much experience. Many people advised, encouraged and inspired me along the way, and this project is how I pay it back. I studied triathlon at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport in Prague and coach from sprint distance to Ironman.
