Plan Description
The 44-Week Intermediate Training Plan is designed to guide athletes towards a successful Half Distance Triathlon Monterrey performance, gradually building up endurance, strength, and race-specific skills. Here’s how it helps:
Solid Base Building (12-Week Phase): The first 12 weeks of the plan establish a strong foundation, even for those with no prior triathlon experience. The focus on base endurance ensures your body adapts to the physical demands of the sport, preparing you for the upcoming challenges. This is critical for the Monterrey course, which features a flat bike route and a flat, paved run with minimal elevation changes.
Specific Half Distance Preparation (32-Week Phase): The second phase is designed to progressively increase your fitness, ensuring you're primed for the 90km bike and 21.1km run distances. As you approach race day, the program increases from 9 hours to 14 hours of training per week, including long endurance sessions, brick workouts (bike-to-run), and speed-focused training. This progression ensures you can handle the long swim in the Santa Lucía river, a fast bike leg, and a smooth run course.
Strength Training and Technique Focus: The program includes essential strength training, improving your swimming, cycling, and running form. Focused on technique, it prepares you for the rolling swim start and helps build the muscular endurance required for the bike and run, especially as you navigate the few vehicle bridge elevations on the bike course.
V02 Interval and Anaerobic Threshold Training: The inclusion of these advanced training techniques enhances your cardiovascular system, ensuring you're able to maintain a strong, steady pace during the race. This is especially beneficial for the steady pace needed on the bike course and during the run, while also helping you manage the Monterrey climate.
Race-Specific Skills: The training includes open-water swim practice, critical for acclimating to the Santa Lucía river, and heart rate/power-guided run and bike workouts. These ensure you're ready for the precise pacing required to maintain a strong performance throughout the event.
Expert Guidance and Support: With access to instructional videos and structured workouts, you’ll gain the knowledge to execute your race plan successfully, ensuring you arrive at race day ready to tackle the challenges Monterrey offers with confidence.
