This is great plan to focus on the run portion of the a half distance triathlon. It is the last 7 weeks (including taper) leading up to race, so need to have a good training base going into the plan.
This plan would also be a great gap filler when you just completed a half distance triathlon and have another one coming up shortly.
Starting weekly volume is 6800 yd swimming, 6.5 hrs biking, 5.5 hrs running
I employ a collaborative coaching style. I believe there needs to be a good balance in the athlete's life and triathlon training is only a part of that life. That said, there is a certain amount of discipline and dedication required to meet your potential. I work with the athlete to fit the training they need into an already busy schedule on a one-on one basis as everyone's needs are different. I am committed to my athletes and expect them to be committed to their training.
