Plan Description

Train Smart for the Ohio Half Distance Triathlon with a Proven Six-Month Plan

This race begins with a 1.2-mile swim in Sandusky Bay, launched from the Kelleys Island Ferry via a rolling start—an exciting, open-water challenge with an average water temperature of 78°F. The swim concludes at the Paper District Marina, conveniently located near the transition area.

Next, athletes tackle a 56-mile bike course through Erie and Sandusky Counties. With only 790 feet of elevation gain, this single-loop route is designed for speed—but demands sustained power output and aerodynamic efficiency. The race finishes with a flat, two-loop 13.1-mile run through historic downtown Sandusky. Expect minimal elevation, high spectator energy, and warm conditions, with average temperatures nearing 88°F.

To meet the demands of this specific Half Distance Triathlon, a tailored triathlon training plan is essential. Our Six-Month Advanced Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is crafted to align with the Ohio course’s fast terrain and variable race-day conditions.

🔥 Structured progression: Beginning at 9.5 hours per week and peaking at 14 hours, the plan builds durability without overtraining.
🏃‍♀️ Endurance aerobic miles: Targeted to prepare you for the flat run, enhancing stamina for the final push.
🚴 VO2 max and interval bike sessions: Perfect for dialing in the power required on the fast, flat bike leg.
💪 Anaerobic threshold workouts: Improve lactate clearance and race-day pacing precision.
⚡ Power intervals and sprints: Sharpen speed for strong finishes and race-day responsiveness.

This plan is ideal for experienced triathletes with a solid base. It’s built to reduce injury risk, enhance performance, and instill confidence—all while adapting to the real-world demands of training.

✅ Bonus: Every plan includes personalized email support from a certified coach—to guide, motivate, and keep your training on track.

🎯 Ready to race strong in Ohio? Invest in the plan that’s built for you and the course. Train with precision, race with purpose.
