Plan Description

With our 44-week Half Distance Triathlon training plan, you’ll build the strength, stamina, and mental edge needed to thrive in every leg of this course—from the calm waters of Zach’s Bay to the smooth bike lanes of Wantagh Parkway and the scenic push along the Jones Beach Boardwalk.

Here’s how this structured training plan prepares you for success:

✅ Master the Open Water Swim in Zach’s Bay
Begin with low-pressure swim drills, then advance to open-water simulation workouts that build your confidence and pacing strategy for the 1.2-mile counter-clockwise swim. Our plan includes video-guided swim technique sessions tailored for protected bay conditions like Jones Beach.

✅ Crush the Bike on the Closed Wantagh Parkway
Train on power-based intervals and tempo rides that mimic the rhythm of this flat, fast 56-mile bike course. Dual-loop prep rides help you manage energy across laps, and structured brick workouts prepare your legs for the critical bike-to-run transition.

✅ Run Strong on the Scenic Boardwalk
Our heart rate–based run sessions and progressive long runs simulate the 13.1-mile flat course along the boardwalk—preparing you for both pacing and heat management, even under summer sun.

✅ Progressive, Phase-Based Structure

🎯 12-week base phase: Build endurance and foundational strength.

🚀 32-week race-specific phase: Focused on speed, threshold, and brick sessions to sharpen race-day readiness.

✅ Smart Volume Progression
Start at just 9 hours/week and gradually build to a manageable 14-hour peak—perfect for balancing training with a busy life.

✅ All-in-One Support System
📧 Personalized email coach support ensures you stay on track, adjust as needed, and get expert feedback throughout your journey.

✅ Train with Confidence
From VO₂ intervals to anaerobic threshold work, every detail is structured with purpose—designed by triathlon specialists who understand the needs of intermediate athletes like you.

🏁 If you're serious about finishing strong at the Half Distance Triathlon New York – Jones Beach, this plan gives you the roadmap, structure, and support to succeed.

👉 Start your journey today with the plan that’s built to get you across the finish line—stronger, smarter, and more prepared than ever.
