Bolton’s Half Distance Triathlon is no joke — a 1.2-mile (1.9 km) swim in Pennington Flash, a 56-mile (90 km) ride packed with climbs through Victoria and Old Kiln Roads, and a 13.1-mile (21.1 km) run through Bolton Town Centre and Queen’s Park with crowds roaring down Chorley New Road.
.
You need more than grit — you need a plan. The 6-Month Half Distance Triathlon Bolton Training Plan is built to get you race-ready, fast, and confident.
