This is a half distance long course triathlon training program for the intermediate triathlete with limited training time. The program is set over 14 weeks with weeks 1 to 8 as the base periods, week 9 to 12 as the build period and weeks 13 to 14 as the peak weeks (including race week).

This plan is based on a 4 week recovery cycle and is considered an intermediate program due to the high volume of workload and intensity over a shorter period of time. It is therefore aimed at the triathlete that has already experienced numerous Half Ironman events and is looking for a fast track program that offers structured workouts to amplify fitness and get race ready in a shorter period of time.

This plan is designed to push muscle endurance and allow for effective recovery whilst building a progressive ramp up week on week.

Specific areas that make this program effective are:

- A diverse array of bike workouts are included to complement High Intensity over specific parts of the periodisation. Fully integrated into Zwift.
- Reduced swim workouts but designed with specific drills that will enhance swim efficiency and stroke for calculated execution on race day.
- Well designed and a highly recommended Strength and Conditioning program which will give all 3 disciplines the edge that is needed to accomplish your best time to date.

The athlete must be able to do the following COMFORTABLY before starting this program:
- Swim 2000 metres
- Cycle 2hrs
- Run 75mins

This is a program that I have successfully used myself and I also include email support if needed.
