Plan Description

Half Distance Triathlon Victoria Canada – Your Roadmap to Race-Day Success Starts Here
🌊🚴‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Racing the Half Distance Triathlon in Victoria, Canada means taking on one of the most scenic and rewarding endurance events in North America. With a swim in Elk Lake starting at Hamsterly Beach Park, a stunning 90 km bike ride through four municipalities, and a trail-based two-loop run around Elk and Beaver Lake, this race demands more than just willpower—it requires a smart training strategy.

✅ Progressive Weekly Build-Up
Starting at just 7 hours in week one and peaking at 12 hours by week 19, you'll build endurance and confidence with structured, manageable progression.

✅ Targeted Swim, Bike & Run Sessions
Each week includes detailed workouts:

🏊 Technique-focused swim drills with open-water practice

🚴 Bike intervals designed for hilly courses like Victoria’s

🏃 Run sessions that mimic trail running and build race-day pacing

✅ Strength Training for Triathletes
Incorporates full-body strength sessions—backed by video instruction*—to improve durability and reduce injury risk.

✅ Anaerobic Threshold & VO2 Workouts
