Plan Description
Train Smarter. Race Stronger. Conquer the Half Distance Puerto Rico Triathlon.
The 6-Month Advanced Half Distance Training Plan is engineered for athletes ready to rise to the challenge of the Puerto Rico Half Distance Triathlon — a race defined by tropical heat, ocean swims, coastal rides, and historic hills.
This plan isn't for beginners. It's built for those with a strong foundation, starting at 9.5 hours of training in Week 1 and peaking at 14 hours. Why? Because the demands of Puerto Rico's course require more than basic fitness — they demand strategy, strength, and resilience.
Here’s how this plan prepares you for race day:
🏊 Swim Preparation – Open Water Confidence:
The calm waters of Condado Lagoon may be protected, but ocean dynamics still require stamina and control. Our endurance swim sessions simulate race conditions to build comfort and efficiency in open water.
🚴 Bike Strength for Coastal Winds & Rolling Terrain:
Puerto Rico's 56-mile bike course includes short, punchy climbs and ocean breezes. VO2 max intervals and anaerobic threshold training help you power through wind resistance and elevation changes without burning out.
🏃 Run Efficiency for Heat & Hills:
The 13.1-mile run winds through the hot, hilly streets of Old San Juan. With targeted anaerobic power sprints and aerobic mile-building, you'll handle the heat, conquer the climbs, and maintain pace to the finish line — all while soaking in the Atlantic views and historic charm.
💥 Race-Day Ready Resilience:
By boosting your VO2 max, building threshold durability, and layering in high-intensity sessions, this plan conditions you for the mental and physical endurance needed in Puerto Rico’s tropical conditions (expect 85°F / 29°C on race day).
Don’t just race. Dominate.
Join our 6-month training program and transform your potential into performance. Whether you're chasing a PR or conquering new terrain, this is the plan that gets you there.
