Plan Description

This Beginner’s Six-Month Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is designed specifically to prepare you for the demands of the Half Distance Triathlon Calgary course:

✅ Built for Beginners – The plan provides a clear, progressive path for those new to the Half Distance Triathlon, assuming you start with a four to six-week aerobic base. This foundation is crucial to handle Calgary’s varied terrain and race distances safely and effectively.

✅ Gradual Progression – As you advance, the training incorporates VO2 max interval and anaerobic threshold workouts that simulate race-day efforts needed on the rolling bike course and challenging run loops. These sessions improve your aerobic capacity and speed endurance, essential for managing Calgary’s hills and potential headwinds.

✅ Comprehensive Training – Focused swim technique drills and open-water practice ensure comfort and efficiency during the two-loop swim in Lake Harmony’s cool water. Strength training sessions with detailed video guidance build muscular resilience for the rolling bike terrain and sustained run efforts, while base endurance workouts develop stamina across all three disciplines.

✅ Tailored Workouts – Structured bike and run intervals based on Rate of Perceived Effort (RPE) and heart rate training zones help you master pacing strategies for Calgary’s variable conditions. Instructional swim videos refine your stroke to maximize speed and conserve energy.

✅ Supportive Coach Access – Personalized email coaching offers ongoing guidance to answer your questions and adjust your training as needed, helping you stay on track and prepared for race day.

This Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan equips you with the endurance, strength, and technique to face the Calgary course’s rolling terrain, fluctuating weather, and technical swim format. Its measured buildup addresses the physical and mental demands specific to this race, allowing you to approach the event with confidence and clarity.

Begin your training journey with this plan and benefit from expert guidance tailored to the Half Distance Triathlon Calgary. Embrace the preparation needed to navigate the swim loops, conquer the rolling bike hills, and maintain steady pace on the run course along the Bow River.
