Plan Description


Welcome to your 10 Week Runner to Duathlete Training Plan

This plan is ideal if you have done some 5k and 10 running races and fancy trying out a run-bike-run Duathlon over the winter season.

By the end of the plan you will be able to complete a duathlon consisting of a 5km run, a 30k bike and a second 5km run.

Your plan includes:

- Bike, Run and S&C sessions
- HR and Power sessions for Zwift, Garmin, Wahoo etc
- Strength sessions to help prevent injuries
- Training & Race Tips
- Brick, combo and race simulation sessions
- Email access to coach

The plan builds endurance on the bike so that a long ride of about 1:45 is possible in week 7.

Overall weekly cycling time also builds from 1:15 in week 1 to 3:20 in week 9.
This gentle build reduces risk of injury and helps you as a runner be more economical on the bike.

Monday is your rest and recovery day.

There is a time trail in week 4 to check your progress. There is a race simulation in week 9.

You should consult your doctor before embarking on any physical fitness training. For any of the sessions, especially the strength and conditioning sessions, if you are unsure of the exercises then seek the help and advice of a professional near you.

My name is Karen and I live in Southern Spain near the IRONMAN® Marbella 70.3 event where I coach and run Triathlon training camps all year round (ChiliTri). So, if you would like face to face coaching and come and check out the Marbella course please get in touch. Karen is an IRONMAN® Certified Coach and British Triathlon Federation Level 3 Coach. I also work as a Coach Educator & Assessor for the British Triathlon Federation, helping to develop the next generation of triathlon coaches in the UK.
Karen is also a Qualified Personal Trainer specialising in endurance athletes so all of the S & C sessions are tried and tested.

Good luck with your training and duathlon event!
