Plan Description

The Half Distance Triathlon in Manta, Ecuador, offers a stunning yet challenging test of endurance. Set in the coastal province of Manabí, this race includes a 1.9km swim in the warm Pacific Ocean (averaging 78°F/26°C), a flat and fast 90km bike ride along scenic coastal roads, and a 21km run through the heart of the city, where tropical breezes and temperatures around 77°F (25°C) shape the race-day experience.

To succeed in these unique conditions, your training must go beyond generic workouts. Our Six-Month Advanced Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is strategically crafted to match the demands of this specific course—building endurance, power, and speed while preparing you for heat, humidity, and race-day pacing.

✔️ Endurance Aerobic Mile Training develops the stamina you need to sustain performance across all three disciplines—critical for handling the ocean swim and warm-weather run.

✔️ VO2 Max Intervals enhance oxygen efficiency, ideal for the sustained tempo required on Manta’s flat bike course.

✔️ Anaerobic Threshold Sessions train your body to maintain higher intensities with less fatigue—perfect for pushing through wind exposure and sun on the open bike route.

✔️ Anaerobic Power Intervals boost leg strength and running turnover, helping you hold form through the final kilometers, even in the heat.

✔️ Gradual weekly progression (from 9.5 to 14 hours per week) ensures structured overload without risking injury.

This plan is built for athletes with an established training base and is best suited for those looking to improve their race-day execution and finish strong in Manta. With personalized email coach support, you’ll receive expert guidance tailored to your journey.

Train with purpose. Build race-specific fitness. Perform with confidence.

Get the training plan that supports your goals and prepares you for the unique demands of the Half Distance Triathlon in Manta, Ecuador.
