Plan Description

Get ready to conquer the Half Distance Triathlon in Chattanooga — a course that begins with a thrilling 1.4-mile swim in the Tennessee River, rolls through a stunning 56-mile bike ride along Lookout Mountain, and finishes with a 13.1-mile run across downtown Chattanooga’s most iconic landmarks.

Our Advanced 44-Week Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is expertly crafted for amateur advanced athletes like you—those who are serious about reaching their personal best, whether it’s your first Half Distance Triathlon or you’re aiming for a PR.

Here’s how this plan gives you the edge in Chattanooga:

🔥 Start Strong, Finish Stronger
No prior mileage? No problem. Begin with a 12-week base-building phase that gradually strengthens your aerobic foundation, preparing you to handle the demands of long-course racing.

📈 Strategic 3/1 Training Structure
Train smarter with a proven 3-weeks-on, 1-week-recovery cycle. Over 32 weeks, you’ll progress from 9.5 to 14 hours per week, ensuring sustainable growth, peak fitness, and proper recovery.

🏋️‍♀️ Strength That Transfers
Functional strength training transitions into race-specific exercises, building the power and resilience you need for Chattanooga’s rolling bike terrain and dynamic river currents.

🎯 Race-Specific Conditioning
Master every element of the Half Distance Triathlon:

Swim: Prepare for Chattanooga’s downstream river current with swim workouts that improve technique, endurance, and open-water confidence.

Bike: Build sustained climbing strength for the North Georgia loop with VO₂ max and anaerobic threshold training.

Run: Boost your late-race durability with a mix of tempo, interval, and aerobic sessions designed to simulate the fast, flat finish through Riverfront Parkway.

💪 High-Performance Training for Real Athletes
This plan includes aerobic base conditioning, sprint-power development (ATP-PC training), and advanced pacing strategies to prepare your mind and body for race day.

You’re not just preparing for a race — you’re building a legacy.
Step onto the course at Ross’s Landing with confidence, knowing you’ve done the work to thrive on race day.
