Plan Description

Half Distance Triathlon Boulder Training Plan – Dominate the Course with Confidence

This 44-week intermediate training plan is specifically designed to prepare you for the unique demands of racing in Boulder’s high-altitude, fast, and challenging terrain. Whether you're looking to PR or simply finish strong, this plan will get you to the start line ready—and across the finish line proud.

🌊 Swim Boulder Strong
Train for Boulder Reservoir's cool 62°F (17°C) water with targeted open water sessions that mirror the 1.2-mile counterclockwise course. Build endurance and technique to confidently swim from the east boat ramp and exit strong at the west.

🚴 Crush the Bike Course
The 56-mile, 2-loop ride includes rolling terrain and fast descents on Diagonal Hwy and rural Hygiene Rd. Our plan builds power, control, and pacing strategy with structured intervals and hill workouts—perfect for mastering Boulder’s freshly paved, elevation-rich course.

🏃 Run Like a Local
Train for the hard-packed dirt and fast, rolling terrain of the 13.1-mile run through Monarch Rd and 55th St—known for world-class athletes. You'll build strength and speed across two loops that test both grit and efficiency.

✅ What You Get in the 44-Week Intermediate Plan:

✅ 12-week base phase to build foundational fitness, no prior mileage required

✅ 32-week race-specific phase with progressive training from 9 to 14 hours/week

✅ Heart rate and power-based sessions for precision run and bike development

✅ Open water swim prep and technique drills

✅ Strength training + video instruction for swim form, core, and injury prevention

✅ V02 max & Anaerobic Threshold intervals to break through plateaus

✅ Brick workouts that simulate race-day fatigue and transitions

🔥 This is more than a plan—it’s your path to mastery. Designed for the Boulder course. Built for the committed athlete. Backed by coaching expertise and trusted methodology.

🎯 If you're ready to train smart, race strong, and elevate your performance on race day—this is your moment.

👉 Start your journey today and train with purpose for the Half Distance Triathlon Boulder.
