Half Distance Oceanside Triathlon Training Plan - Crush the Course. Conquer the Coast.

Train smart. Race strong. The Half Distance Oceanside Triathlon is more than just a race—it's a journey through a one-of-a-kind coastal course that tests your endurance, sharpens your strategy, and rewards your commitment. With its 1.2-mile swim in the calm, protected Oceanside Harbor, a scenic 56.2-mile bike ride through the iconic Camp Pendleton military base, and a flat yet challenging 13.1-mile run along The Strand, success here demands preparation as unique as the course itself.

Train with Purpose: The 44-Week Intermediate Plan
This isn't just another triathlon plan—it’s a comprehensive, results-driven roadmap designed for committed athletes like you. Whether you're leveling up from sprint and Olympic races or returning to the half distance with fresh goals, this plan meets you where you are and propels you toward your peak.

✅ Start Strong, Finish Unstoppable
No base mileage? No problem. The first 12 weeks focus on foundational fitness, gradually building your endurance while avoiding injury.

✅ Progressive Performance Build
The 32-week race-specific phase dives deep into structured swim, bike, and run workouts. Starting at just 9 hours a week and peaking at 14, each training block is fine-tuned to prepare your body and mind for Oceanside's unique demands—especially those coastal breezes, mild temps, and rolling terrain.

✅ Strength, Speed & Stamina
With a balanced mix of aerobic endurance, tempo intervals, brick workouts, and open water sessions, you’ll train smarter—not just harder. VO2 max intervals and threshold work sharpen your race-day speed, while strength and mobility sessions support injury resistance and power output.

✅ Visual Coaching & Expert Guidance
Follow along with exclusive swim drill videos, mobility tutorials, and strength workouts. Structured bike and run sessions using power and heart rate zones keep every session purposeful.

🌊 Why It Works for Oceanside
This training plan is built to mirror the course—flatter run segments with short inclines, long steady-state bike efforts, and race-day temperature adaptations. You'll train in conditions similar to what you’ll face, ensuring confidence and control on the big day.
