Plan Description

Train Smart for the Half Distance Triathlon Muskoka: A Plan Built for Real Race Demands

With a 1.9 km swim in calm Peninsula Lake, a 90 km bike ride over relentless hills, and a 21.1 km run through shaded trails and steep rollers, this course demands structured training. Our Beginner’s Six-Month Half Distance Triathlon Plan is built specifically to meet these race-day challenges head-on.

🏊‍♂️ Swim-Ready Conditioning
✔️ Focus on technique, sighting, and open-water confidence for the clear, smooth conditions in Peninsula Lake.
✔️ Weekly drills and tempo efforts improve form and pacing, key to a strong start at Muskoka.

🚴 Climb with Confidence
✔️ Progressive cycling workouts tailored to simulate Muskoka’s 1,200+ meters of elevation gain.
✔️ VO2 and threshold intervals sharpen climbing ability and power endurance for back-to-back hills.
✔️ Long weekend rides build stamina and mental resilience for the single-loop, scenic but demanding bike course.

🏃 Trail-Smart Running
✔️ Two-loop run prep with race-specific tempo efforts.
✔️ Emphasis on pacing, stride economy, and heat adaptation to match Muskoka’s late summer conditions.


🧠 Comprehensive, Athlete-Centered Design
✔️ Weekly strength sessions with video demos* target injury prevention and race-day durability.
✔️ RPE- and heart rate–based intervals personalize training to your current fitness level.
✔️ Email coach support gives you answers and guidance when you need it most.

With this plan, you’re not guessing—you’re training with intent. Each week builds logically from the last, starting at 7 hours and peaking around 12, ensuring you arrive in Muskoka physically prepared and mentally ready.

📧 Let’s train together. Whether you're taking on your first Half Distance Triathlon or looking to improve with expert structure, this plan has the tools—and the support—to help you succeed.
