Why This Plan Works for the Half Distance Durban Triathlon 🏆
✅ Swim Confidence in Open Water
Train specifically for the Indian Ocean's currents and temperatures with open-water simulation workouts and pacing guidance for the anti-clockwise 1.9 km (1.2-mile) swim.
✅ Power Through the Bike Course
This plan includes high-intensity intervals and strength-building hill sessions to prepare you for the rolling terrain of the 90 km (56-mile) M4 highway loop. Learn how to hold speed, manage effort, and navigate turns smoothly.
