Why This Plan Works for Geelong
The Geelong course offers a unique mix of calm open-water swimming, undulating coastal bike segments, and a scenic yet rolling run course. To succeed here, you’ll need a plan that blends technique, strength, and race-specific endurance — and that’s exactly what this 36-week advanced Half DIST training plan delivers.
