Plan Description

If you're dreaming about finishing your first Half Distance Triathlon—and the Jones Beach Triathlon is your goal—this is where it starts. Triathlon Training with Expert Coach Support

Picture this: gliding through the calm waters of Zach’s Bay, powering down the iconic Wantagh Parkway on a completely closed bike course, and running strong along the breathtaking Jones Beach Boardwalk with the finish line waiting on the white sand. This isn’t just a race—it’s a life-changing experience. And with the right training, you will be ready.

✅ No Experience? No Problem.
This 36-week plan was designed specifically for first-time triathletes—no racing background or fancy gear required. If you’ve got determination, we’ll give you the structure and support to cross that finish line.

✅ 12 Weeks to Build Your Base
We start slow and smart, helping you build endurance and confidence with structured swim, bike, and run workouts. You’ll get easy-to-follow swim drills with video guidance to help you feel calm and strong in the open water.

✅ Train with Purpose, Grow with Confidence
Over 24 weeks, you’ll build up from 7 to 12 hours of training per week—step by step. Bike workouts prepare you for the flat, fast course; run sessions build your stamina for the scenic final leg; and open-water swim prep gets you ready for race day nerves.

✅ Brick Workouts for Real-World Race Readiness
Learn how to smoothly transition from bike to run—no surprises, just steady progress. These workouts help you feel strong and steady when it matters most.

✅ Strength Training Made Simple
Video-guided strength workouts* help prevent injuries and build the muscle you’ll need for race day—especially in the final stretch along the sunny boardwalk.

✅ Guided by Heart Rate or Effort Level
You don’t need expensive gadgets. You’ll train using heart rate or simply by how your body feels—because smart training is about progress, not perfection.

📧 You’re Never Alone—Coach Support Included
Every plan includes personalized email support from a certified coach. Ask questions, get feedback, and stay on track—because support matters, especially when it’s your first time.

🔥 This is your moment. Your challenge. Your journey.
Take the first step toward becoming a Half Distance Triathlete—and let us guide you to the finish line at Jones Beach.
