Plan Description
Own the Half Distance Triathlon Eagleman – Smart Training for a Fast Finish
Ready to take on the legendary Half Distance Triathlon Eagleman in Cambridge, Maryland? This iconic course demands both precision and power—so your training should too.
The race begins with a 1.2-mile swim in the Choptank River, starting and ending at Gerry Boyle Park. Expect a counterclockwise loop—out against the tide, back with it. The current’s your opponent and ally. Nail it with targeted open water swim prep.
The 56-mile bike course is fast and flat—only 330 ft of elevation through rural roads and the stunning Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge. Sounds easy? Think again. Coastal winds can wreck unprepared legs. That’s why our plan builds strength and smarts.
Finally, the 13.1-mile run loops twice along the Choptank River and through the charming Algonquin neighborhood. Expect heat (80°F/27°C average), sun exposure, and zero shade. Our race-specific long runs and hydration strategies train you to thrive—not just survive.
