Plan Description
Race the Half Distance Triathlon in Melbourne with confidence using this advanced 36-week training plan, engineered specifically for the course’s unique demands—from the swim at St. Kilda Beach to the scenic Beach Road ride and iconic waterfront run to Catani Gardens.
This program is not just a schedule—it’s a strategic progression. Starting with a 12-week foundation phase, you'll build resilience, technique, and strength before entering the 24-week specialized Half Distance Triathlon phase, where intensity, endurance, and performance take center stage.
🔥 How This Plan Prepares You for the Melbourne Half Distance Triathlon:
✅ Swim Smart at St. Kilda Beach
Structured swim workouts mimic the 1.9km open-water course, with drills for sighting, pacing, and technique under variable conditions—perfect for navigating the likely 18°C waters in a wetsuit-optional setting.
✅ Crush the Fast Beach Road Bike Course
The bike phase includes threshold training, power sprints, and interval sessions designed for flat, fast terrain—ideal for replicating the Melbourne route along Half Moon Bay and Mordialloc.
✅ Run Strong Along the Waterfront
From tempo runs to aerobic intervals, the run sessions build the speed and stamina required to master the 21.1km two-lap course along St. Kilda and Elwood, with training that helps you finish strong—especially along that palm-lined stretch at Catani Gardens.
✅ Train with Purpose and Structure
Our 3:1 training rhythm (3 weeks build, 1 week recovery) balances progressive overload with smart recovery—helping you adapt without burnout.
✅ Boost Endurance and Speed
Advanced methods like VO2 max intervals, anaerobic threshold training, and ATP-PC sprint work help you peak at the right time—stronger, faster, and mentally ready.
✅ Functional Strength Included
Early phases emphasize injury prevention and movement efficiency, transitioning into traditional strength to support endurance and power across all three disciplines.
