Plan Description
Tackling the Half Distance Triathlon in Mossel Bay means navigating a dynamic sea swim, a hilly 90km bike course, and a scenic, undulating run along the iconic Point walkway. This course demands a blend of strength, endurance, and smart pacing—and that’s exactly what our 44-week Intermediate Half Distance Triathlon Training Plan delivers.
Here’s how this plan prepares you for Mossel Bay’s distinct challenges:
🌊 Open Water Confidence
The 1.9km sea swim from Santos Beach to De Bakke Beach requires comfort in ocean conditions. Our training includes open water simulation sets, sighting drills, and race-day pacing strategies so you're ready for the rolling start—even in chilly waters (avg. 19.1°C / 66°F).
🚴 Crush the Hills with Power & Control
With 1,020m / 3,346ft of elevation on the bike course, power development and sustained climbing ability are critical. You’ll build climbing strength through structured power-based workouts, long tempo rides, and interval training designed to tackle the steep rollers between De Bakke and Herbertsdale.
🏃♂️ Run Strong Off the Bike
The three-lap, 21.1km undulating run through Mossel Bay’s harbor and coastal paths tests your durability. This plan features progressive brick sessions and tempo-effort long runs to build the muscular endurance and pacing discipline you need to stay strong and steady to the finish.
✅ Built-in 12-week base to develop aerobic durability
✅ Specific 32-week phase targeting Half Distance Triathlon success
✅ Weekly swim, bike, run & strength training videos
✅ Heart rate & power-based sessions for precision progress
✅ Introduces VO2 max & anaerobic threshold workouts to sharpen speed
✅ Strategically selected “B” and “C” races to simulate race intensity, enabling fine-tuning of transitions, nutrition, and pacing for peak performance.
✅ Personalized coach email support to guide your journey
Whether you’re racing Mossel Bay for the first time or aiming to crush your previous best, this plan is your blueprint for success.
