About Discomfort Zone Triathlon Coaching
New to triathlon?
Group training is a great way to introduce yourself to the sport. At DZ group training you can learn skills, get advice, meet other triathletes, build fitness and have fun! Beginners are always welcome.
Triathlon Camps
For fun, adventurous destination training in a spectacular venue, we suggest DZ Asheville Spring Triathlon Camp in April. DZ training camps are no average vacation: besides building fitness in scenic and challenging training locations, you’ll share an unforgettable experience with a great group of triathletes.
Personal Coaching
Serious about your triathlon goals? Whether you’re beginner or elite, personal coaching is the best way to make the most of your training. DZ Head Coach Mike Coughlin and Associate Coaches Brad Walker and Mike Mahoney will be happy to tailor a training program specific to you. Whether you’re new to the sport or going for a big goal race, next to determination your coach is your single best ticket to success.
Personal Training
Did you know that DZ coaches also provide personal training? Sometimes the best way to improve is personal, one-on-one, triathlon-specific training. Talk to your DZ coach or email us about personal training options.
Beginners
It’s a core value of Discomfort Zone that we provide accessible training that’s comfortable for beginners to come out and learn. Beginners are welcome at all DZ events–you’ll find a fun, social, and welcoming group of triathletes.
Most of all, we’re excited about coaching triathletes to achieve their goals. Whether it’s getting ready for that first try-a-tri, a personal best time, health and fitness, or a serious shot at the Ultraman World Championships, helping athletes to perform out of their comfort zone is what Discomfort Zone is all about.
