Plan Description
The Half Distance Triathlon New York – Jones Beach is built for speed: a calm 1.2-mile swim in Zach’s Bay, a closed 56-mile bike course on the historic Wantagh Parkway, and a fast 13.1-mile run on the iconic Jones Beach Boardwalk.
To rise to this opportunity, you need more than a generic plan — you need a strategic, performance-driven Half Distance Triathlon training plan designed for experienced athletes chasing peak results.
Welcome to the 6-Month Advanced Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan — built for high-performance age-groupers ready to PR.
