Summary

Meticulously crafted from the principles laid out in Matt Fitzgerald's bestselling book 80/20 Triathlon, this 70.3 Level 2 training plan will provide you with the same workout structure used by the most successful triathletes in the world. It has been specifically formulated to ensure the athlete adheres to the 80/20 principle.

Target Athlete

This plan is a good fit for competitive triathletes with a goal of finishing their next half Ironman in a personal-best time. Choose it only if you have previously completed at least one triathlon of any distance or you have a strong history in one of the three disciplines. You should be comfortably able to swim, bike, and run for an hour and complete 6 total hours of aerobic exercise over seven days before you begin. The weekly training volume starts at approximately 8.75 hours in Week 1 and peaks at approximately 11.75 hours in Week 13.

Lifetime Plan

All purchased 80/20 Endurance plans become a permanent part of your TrainingPeaks plan library. You can start, stop, and reuse the plan as often as you like, beginning or ending at any point in the plan.

Level Guarantee

Not sure which level is right for you? Review our Level Comparison Chart to find the best fit. Additionally, each 80/20 plan comes with a Level Guarantee: If you discover that the level you have selected is too hard or too easy for you, simply contact us for a complimentary switch to a different level within the same distance.

100% Structured Workouts

This plan leverages the TrainingPeaks structured workout feature with heart-rate based workouts. Each workout can be exported to a supported device, which will automatically guide you through the session with duration, lap, and intensity prompts. Workouts do not have to be exported to be performed effectively, as the detailed descriptions provide all the information you need to successfully complete the workout. See our Structured Workout page for more information.

Support

Robust support and documentation for your plan can be found at the 80/20 Resources page. You will be able to contact the authors directly to request clarification on any issue.
