Plan Description
The Half Distance Triathlon Augusta, Georgia isn’t your average race — it’s fast, scenic, and deceptively challenging. With a current-assisted 1.2-mile swim in the Savannah River, a 56-mile bike through Georgia’s rolling backcountry, and a shaded, 13.1-mile run through the North Augusta Greeneway, it demands smart, structured preparation. Our 44-week Intermediate Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan is engineered to meet those demands — and exceed your expectations.
✔️ No Base Mileage? No Problem.
Start your journey with confidence. This plan begins with a 12-week base phase — ideal even if you're starting from scratch. You’ll build aerobic capacity and resilience without burnout.
✔️ Race-Specific Prep for Augusta Conditions
You'll train for Augusta’s steady-river swim with open water sessions and sustained efforts to simulate the river current. On the bike, progressive long rides and intervals prepare your legs for 2000 ft of climbing — and fast descents. The run? Expect plenty of tempo efforts and brick workouts that mimic Augusta’s shaded, rolling terrain.
✔️ Smart Progression: From 9 to 14 Hours/Week
Training volume begins with manageable 9-hour weeks and strategically builds to a 14-hour peak. This gradual progression ensures injury-free gains while sharpening endurance for your Half Distance Triathlon finish line moment.
💪 More Than Just Miles — It’s Performance Science
We blend tempo runs, structured power-based rides, swim drills, and VO₂ max + anaerobic threshold training to push your engine further. Strength training is built-in — no guesswork required.
🎯 Train with Confidence Using Expert Tools
Enjoy exclusive video guides for swim technique, mobility, and strength*. Heart rate- and power-structured sessions take the guesswork out of each workout, helping you train smarter — not just harder.
