Plan Description
Train Smart for the Half Distance Triathlon Muskoka – A Plan Built for Results
This 36-week advanced training blueprint is designed for dedicated amateur athletes aiming to race strong and confident across Muskoka’s rugged landscape. It begins with 12 weeks of foundational work, then progresses through 24 weeks of structured Half Distance Triathlon-specific training—each phase designed to prepare you for the specific demands of this event.
✅ Strategic 3:1 Week Cycle: Three weeks of progressive overload followed by one week of recovery—ensuring gains without burnout.
✅ Progressive Weekly Volume: Starts at 9.5 hours and peaks at 14.5, building your resilience steadily and sustainably.
✅ Functional Strength Emphasis: Early-phase bodyweight strength transitions to race-specific muscular endurance, key for Muskoka's hilly terrain.
✅ Swim Technique Focus: Dial in open-water form and sighting strategies for a confident performance in Peninsula Lake.
✅ Run Durability & Efficiency: Build strength and turnover to handle punchy hills and trail sections with control.
Key Physiological Workouts Included:
🏊 Aerobic Mile Repeats for sustainable endurance
🚴 VO2 Max Intervals and Threshold Sessions for stronger hill efforts
🏃 Climbing Accelerations and Power Sprints to mimic Muskoka's terrain
💪 ATP-PC Sprint Training to sharpen late-stage race performance
This isn't a generic plan—it's a carefully structured path that aligns with the demands of Muskoka’s Half Distance Triathlon. The design anticipates the steep climbs, trail transitions, and pacing complexities athletes face on race day.
