Are you training for your first sprint triathlon—or getting back into the sport after some time away?

In this episode of the Be Fierce & Tri Podcast, Coach Jill Bartholomew walks through exactly what to focus on when you’re about 90 days out from race day.

This episode is a repurposed live “Chat with the Coach” session, originally designed for athletes preparing for the Women’s Philadelphia Triathlon. You’ll hear real questions from athletes, practical coaching advice, and the key things that matter most at this stage of training.

We cover:



• How much training you actually need for a sprint triathlon


• Moving from indoor to outdoor training safely and effectively


• Building confidence in the swim (especially for first-timers)


• How to think about work, life, and training balance


• What to know about fueling for training and race day


• How to practice transitions (and avoid common mistakes)


• Why brick workouts matter—and how to do them right

If you’re feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or just want to make sure you’re on the right track—this episode will help you train with more clarity and confidence.
