Hello All,
I am new to Austin & brand new to Slowtwitch!
I am looking for any recommendations for a triathlon coach in the Austin area. Are they any training groups? I’d love to complete my first 70.3 but feel like I need a coach.
Thanks in advance.
disclaimer: I am not a member of any team nor do I have a coach, but I am active in the Austin tri scene, so here are couple places for you to start looking:
Team Radioactive – this group skews somewhat older but seem like a fun set of folks. very visible at local races, not sure how much coaching there is but they do have group workouts.

Primal Endurance – the head coach, Jamie, is a friend/rival and good triathlete himself and super nice dude.

T3 Multisport - I know some of the younger kids I race against have been part of this group, so it might really be for the teenage crowd.

There used to be groups from Moxie Multisport and Wattie Ink but I haven’t seen any of their tents at races lately. Also there are groups from Team RWB and Every Man Jack at pretty much every local tri.
There are also Tri training groups at the local Lifetime Fitness locations, plus a bunch of coaches I’m sure that don’t necessarily run a ‘team’ style service.
They are based out of San Antonio but I see several of them at every race in Austin, too: Paragon Training. https://www.paragontraining.org/
Look in to Austin Tri Club
