Patriot Half training in Massachusetts
Patriot Half preparation connects a comfortable open-water swim, sustainable cycling and a run you can manage afterward. The organizer identifies Long Pond in East Freetown as the swim venue. I build the block around your recent training, schedule and practiced fueling, then check the current athlete guide before finalizing race logistics.
What should I practice for the swim?
Open-water comfort, sighting and the equipment you will use. Confirm the current start procedure with the organizer rather than copying an old wave schedule.
What should the bike leave for the run?
Enough control to follow your practiced fueling and begin running at a defendable effort. Long sessions should check that connection before race day.
Choose the feedback you will use.

Questions, answered.
What does coaching cost?
Essential is $250, Performance $350 and Elite $750 every four weeks. That is 13 payments per year. I cap the total roster at 15 athletes; Elite has a four-athlete cap. Availability is confirmed individually.
Who writes and reviews the plan?
I do. Your recent training, feedback and calendar shape the next block. Apex adapts a software plan and is a separate offer.
What should I bring to the first call?
Your target event, a recent representative result, the training you have actually completed and a typical work week. Tell me what you cannot move before we discuss what to add.
