Plan Description
The 36-Week Beginner Training Plan is expertly crafted to prepare you for the Half Distance Triathlon in Mossel Bay, one of South Africa’s most scenic and demanding coastal races. From the rolling sea swim between Santos and De Bakke beaches, to the hilly 90km bike ride with 1,020m of elevation, to the undulating 21.1km coastal run—this plan ensures you're ready to race with strength, confidence, and strategy.
✅ Here’s how this plan sets you up for race-day success:
✅ Swim Preparedness for Open Water Challenges
Train with structured sessions and technique-focused drills to handle the salty swells and rolling beach start. Wetsuit or not, you'll be confident in variable ocean temps (~19.1°C / 66°F).
✅ Bike Training for Hills and Endurance
Simulate the hilly out-and-back course to Uitkyk with focused climbing workouts and RPE/heart rate-based intensity control. Build the strength and stamina to manage long ascents and fast returns over 90km with 1,020m gain.
✅ Run Conditioning for Undulating Terrain
Prepare for the 3-lap harbor-to-coastline course with targeted pacing work, tempo sessions, and long runs that reflect the elevation and loop-style demands of Mossel Bay's unforgettable run.
✅ Progressive Volume & Brick Workouts
Start at 7 hours/week and build to 12, integrating swim-bike-run transitions so race day feels automatic.
✅ Strength Training with Video Instruction
Stay injury-resistant and powerful with full-body strength sessions—even if you’re starting from zero experience.
✅ Personalized Email Coach Support 💬
You're not alone. Get expert guidance, motivation, and custom adjustments from a coach who’s with you every step of the way.
This isn’t just a plan—it’s your roadmap to becoming a Half Distance Triathlon finisher in one of South Africa’s most stunning race locations. You don’t need prior race experience—just the drive to cross that finish line.
