Plan Description
The Musselman Half Distance Triathlon in Geneva, New York, is a standout race in the Finger Lakes region, offering athletes a rewarding challenge amid stunning natural scenery. The course begins with a 1.2-mile swim in the clear, calm waters of Seneca Lake, launching from the Finger Lakes Welcome Center. With early morning shade and average water temps around 72°F (22°C), it sets the tone for a fast start.
Next is the 56-mile bike ride—a scenic yet demanding loop that climbs from the lake valley toward Cayuga Lake before returning with a rapid descent to Seneca. Rolling rural roads and shifting terrain test both stamina and handling.
Finally, the 13.1-mile run features two loops along Seneca Lake and through Hobart and William Smith College. Expect a mix of lakefront views, crowd energy, and gentle elevation, with air temps averaging 70°F (21°C).
To race Musselman well, your preparation must be as intentional as the course is diverse. Our Six-Month Advanced Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is built precisely for this.
