8 week Sprint Distance Duathlon Training - Beginner
Length
9 Weeks
Plan Description
I'm Kyla Lupo and I'll be your digital coach as you train your way to a sprint distance duathlon.
The race distance is a 3 mile run, a 12 mile bike, and a 1.5 mile run.
This plan assumes you have already some experience with biking and running.
You should be able to comfortably bike 5 miles without being sore the next day.
You should be able to run 2 miles without being sore the next day.
You have some experience doing strength workouts and know your own limits.
We'll take these 8 weeks to continue build up your base of mileage and add in some efficiency and speed. If you haven't done anything longer than a Sprint or a 5K this is a GREAT plan to start with.
You can follow it with the "8 week Sprint Distance Duathlon - Intermediate" to help you get some speed and efficiency. (And then follow it with the "8 week Standard Distance Duathlon - Beginner or Intermediate" to continue to build your base and go for the longer distance!)
