Plan Description

Half Distance Texas – Galveston Triathlon Training Plan - Conquer the Coast with Confidence

Ready to race in one of the fastest, most scenic triathlons in the U.S.? The Half Distance Triathlon in Galveston, Texas, centered around iconic Moody Gardens, offers a rare blend of flat terrain, Gulf Coast beauty, and a supportive race atmosphere. To truly capitalize on this PR-friendly course, your preparation needs to be just as focused as your race-day mindset—and that’s where our Six-Month Half Distance Intermediate Training Plan comes in.

🌊 Why Train With Purpose for Galveston?
This isn’t just any race. With a 1.2-mile protected saltwater swim in Offats Bayou, a lightning-fast 56-mile coastal bike ride across the San Luis Pass, and a scenic, spectator-packed 13.1-mile run past Moody Gardens’ pyramids, Galveston rewards athletes who are physically prepared and mentally dialed in. Our plan ensures you arrive race-ready—with strength, strategy, and confidence.

🏋️‍♂️ Built for the Committed Triathlete
This plan is designed specifically for intermediate athletes who’ve already conquered an Olympic distance triathlon. You’ll begin with 8 hours of weekly training, scaling up to 12 hours as your endurance and skills progress. The program is crafted to maximize adaptation while balancing stress and recovery, giving you the edge on race day.

🏃‍♀️🚴‍♂️ Train Smarter, Race Stronger
Brick Workouts: Back-to-back bike and run sessions mimic race fatigue, sharpening your transitions and mental stamina.

Open Water Swim Prep: Focused sessions prepare you for sighting, pacing, and positioning in Galveston’s saltwater conditions.

Targeted Intervals: VO2 max, tempo, and anaerobic threshold workouts push your cardiovascular capacity and race-day efficiency.

🔥 What You’ll Gain
Strategic pacing skills for Galveston’s flat, windy bike course

Stronger run form to handle the 3-loop run through Moody Gardens

Confidence to handle heat, saltwater, and long-course challenges

Mental toughness to carry you through the final mile
