Plan Description
You're gearing up for the Half Distance Triathlon Monterrey—an incredible race through the heart of a dynamic city, featuring a swim in the clear Santa Lucía River, a fast and flat bike course on the Constitution Freeway, and a flat, paved run through the iconic Macroplaza. To help you crush this course with confidence, this 44-week Advanced Half Distance Training Plan is built with every element of Monterrey in mind.
First, we lay the groundwork. The 12-week Base Regimen requires no prior mileage, helping you build a strong aerobic foundation and develop consistency without burnout. This phase ensures your body adapts gradually—so by the time the serious work begins, you're primed and injury-resistant.
Then, you'll move into the 32-week Specialized Program, built with a smart 3:1 structure—three weeks of focused training followed by one week of active recovery. This rhythm lets you train hard, recover well, and grow stronger. Your swim fitness will benefit from both technique and endurance work, preparing you for the warm, calm waters of the Santa Lucía River, where visibility is high and conditions are ideal for speed.
On the bike, you’ll thrive with structured rides targeting endurance, power, and pacing—all vital for Monterrey’s mostly flat, fast course with just a few bridge elevations. You'll get comfortable holding aero position for long stretches and mastering your nutrition and hydration, critical in the likely warm 89°F (32°C) race-day conditions.
The run phase sharpens your legs for that smooth, paved course with just a few steps out of transition. You’ll do threshold and speed work to build power and efficiency, and long runs to dial in your endurance—all while practicing race-day fueling and pacing strategies.
Throughout, you’ll incorporate functional strength training, progressing to conventional lifts to improve durability and prevent injury. You’ll also train across energy systems—endurance base, VO2 max, anaerobic threshold, power, and ATP-PC—so you’re ready for anything, whether it’s a surge on the bike or a strong finish through the vibrant streets of Monterrey.
Bottom line: this plan doesn’t just prepare you for race day—it transforms you into an athlete ready to own every leg of the Half Distance Triathlon Monterrey. Let’s go!
