Plan Description

Competing in the Half Distance Triathlon São Paulo means tackling a fast, urban course that combines natural beauty with cityscape intensity. From the tranquil swim in Guarapiranga Reservoir to the flat and speedy bike and run segments through iconic neighborhoods and city parks, this race rewards athletes who train with strategy and purpose.

That’s exactly where this 36-Week Advanced Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan comes in. Built with the São Paulo course in mind, it’s designed to elevate your endurance, power, and race-day readiness.

✅ Course-Specific Conditioning
You’ll develop swim efficiency for the calm, open waters of Guarapiranga Reservoir, building confidence and rhythm in warm conditions (24°C / 75°F).

You’ll power through progressive bike workouts that simulate São Paulo’s smooth road surfaces, focusing on sustained power and pacing across dual-loop routes.

And you’ll master the three-loop, urban run with sessions targeting flat, fast terrain—ideal for dialing in negative splits and sustained speed.

✅ Progressive 36-Week Framework
Start with a 12-week base phase to build strength and aerobic capacity, followed by 24 weeks of event-specific Half Distance Triathlon prep. Our structured 3:1 cycle (three weeks build, one week recovery) ensures steady progress without burnout.

✅ Peak Performance Training Methods
🏊 Swim: Stroke refinement, open-water strategies, pacing drills
🚴‍♂️ Bike: V02 accelerations, threshold intervals, sprint power
🏃‍♀️ Run: Track intervals, anaerobic threshold sets, speed mechanics
💪 Strength: Foundational functional work, transitioning to power and mobility

✅ Tailored for Amateur Advanced Triathletes
Designed for those ready to push limits, this plan supports weekly training from 9.5 hours to a peak of 14.5 hours—perfect for building stamina without compromising recovery.

✅ Bonus: Personalized Coach Support
Every plan includes personalized email coaching, so you’re never training alone. Get expert feedback, motivation, and custom tweaks to suit your goals.
