So, I know Lukas Verbabitch wants to go to a school that will help him as a triathlete but will probably go to an elite program regardless of that is the best school for training or not. I want to know what are the best universities to train for a triathlon based on facilities/resources alone...
What about Slowtwitch U?
University of Florida has (or had...I no longer keep up with them) one of the consistently best triathlon clubs and cycling clubs in the nation. Similarly there is a vibrant swimming club that competes seriously. Back when I was in grad school here, the running club lost all its vigor and all the competitive people because we all started running with the triathletes to get good serious running done with a larger group of competitive people.
[I bring up these clubs since Triathlon is not an NCAA sport and most likely no one is going to get the athletic department to support a triathlete.]
The other advantage of UF - USA Triathlon is just 1.5 hr down the road in Clermont, FL (a surprisingly hilly place by Florida standards).
Maybe I should have written "consistently better" instead of best. Looks like they're good, but not top of the heap from whatever random results I could find.
I'm sure if you went to a Traithlon forum you would be able to get the answer to that question.
